Highways arene't train tracks...you can't "flip a switch" and make traffic go the opposite way.

The highway patrol/DPS people will have to clear the roads first, and stop people and/or put signs at every exit/on ramp.

I was in Houston on business Mon, Tues, and Wed of this week. Flew out of George Bush Intercontinental yesterday at 6:00 pm. It was pretty much a mad house, even then...

Mayor just announced Katy Freeway (I-10) has now implemented contraflow traffic.

"Highways arene't train tracks...you can't "flip a switch" and make traffic go the opposite way."

It has already been done in other states. Should it have taken 2 1/2 days to "flip this switch"? No, I think not.

Lessons should have been learned from LA evacuation. Seeing cars bumper to bumper on a highway while the inbound roads were empty doesn't make any sense at all.
