Why is traffic during a major evacuation news? Is it a surprise?

People have slept in parking lots and on the shoulder of the interstate last night. Gas stations in almost all small towns along I-10 have run out of gas. Gas stations along Hwy. 77 North from Schulenburg are running out of gas. I believe that is news. If not, you let me know.

" I believe that is news. If not, you let me know."

Great, now what are the alternate routes for evacuation. Instead of focusing on taking pics of cars stopped, maybe focusing on solutions would be better. I want people to provide solutions not recite known problems.

And no, I do not think showing taped traffic jams where there is no longer traffic is "news".

Anything else you want to know?
