[Help!]

My son is on I-10 at about Fry Rd heading for San Antonio. He left yesterday evening from downtown Houston. Traffic is at a standstill. They are talking about opening up the Southbound I-45 to go North, but he says the radio down there is saying that they don't have the Police resources to do the same with I-10. People are breaking down & running out of gas all over and blocking lanes of the road.

He is new to the Houston area and doesn't know any backroads.

There is still time to get this mess sorted out. What has the General said today?

Why aren't gasoline tankers rolling?

The back roads usually lock up along with the highways; the infrastructure is just not designed to evacuate an entire city (or a number of them) within 72 hours.
