I agree, bugging out via road is probably going to be worse that “bugging in” when you hit all the roadblocks, ambushes etc.

But a viable bugout solution could involve general aviation, ranging from a Cessna at the local FPO or even an ultrlight launched from a road.

Or a sailboat, in my case. FUJIMO. You Jack, I’m moving out.

Don’t forget such things as railroad tracks and power line right-of-ways.

But I’m sure you have thought of those as have I.

Let me know if you ever need a Trans-Atlantic sailor who also happens to be an ex-US Infantry heavy weapons instructor. lol

“I agree, bugging out via road is probably going to be worse that “bugging in” when you hit all the roadblocks, ambushes etc.”

The issue is that many folks of a survivalist mindset think that there will be some honor code amongst the “prepared”, when clever folks (possibly more clever than themselves) who have thought through their own self-interest and may cutoff access to the best supplied bug-out locations to more than just the starving masses pillaging the countryside.

Every decision made in times like these will have consequences. But one best not underestimate the level of depravity that is possible in people during times of duress.

Hey Travis, a Cessna can also land on roads. All I need is a section about 2,000’ long, 40’ wide, a siphon hose and gas can so I can get back to base! :)
