Agreed wardamneagle. I evacuated from Ivan. I left a day earlier than most (that Monday), and got out before the traffic. I was not a seasoned hurricane person, but 3 days before, I gassed up, got water, money out of the ATM, supplies, etc.
As I was making my way out, that was when 90% of the rest of the people were stuck in gas lines and stuck in traffic.
If people wait too long, then your committed.
