A highway camera photo shows traffic in FortMcMurray jammed in the southbound lane of Highway 63 on the north side of the Athabasca River. The image was captured at 3:11 p.m. MT, about an hour after an evacuation order was issued for four neighbourhoods. (511 Alberta)
Evacuation order issued as wildfire threatening Fort McMurray draws closer https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/alberta-wildfire-grande-prairie-fort-mcmurray-1.7203695
Planes! Cool, your 20 or so planes evacuated 8000 people.
Your 100 busses evacuated at best 6000 people
That’s 14.000. What about the rest of the, say, 150,000 left for any moderately sized city?
Honestly, if I were in real danger, I’d bike the fuxk out of there, would still be faster than by car
