Michael Petruccelli asks: What should you do - Once You Decide to Evacuate(13)





Michael Petruccelli says:  Double-check for last minute details. Make sure that everything is in order, to the best of your ability, before you leave.
o   Is the power, gas, and water turned off?
o   Do you have everything you need? Did you bring all your pets along?
o   Is the first driver well-rested or would another couple of hours of rest do him or her a world of good? Leaving at 4am instead of 2am if you need to will still keep you out of the main flow of traffic, so there's no need to rush since any driver needs to stay on top of things especially during an evacuation.
