IF YOU HAVE TO FLEE

Travel in at least two [2] vehicles. If necessary, in order to save fuel the second vehicle can be towed using a fixed tow-bar. In such a case the second vehicle should carry the extra gasoline tanks that should be secured and covered so they are hidden from normal view.

Fill up the car with gasoline as often as you can: preferably do not let the tank get below 3/4 full. In doing this be as recluse and quick as possible and do not mention where you are going if asked other than a general direction [preferably indicate somewhere in the general direction you are pointed but deceive the questioner i.e. "I'm going up I10 when you are really going up highway 190 etc.].

It is better to keep moving rather than stop, other than for gas and the use of toilets. Avoid road-side rest stops. If you need to stop do it in a small to medium size town. Travel on major highways but try to avoid large cities where traffic jams and looting can occur. History has shown that starving people DO NOT generally attack and rob others during times of crisis. The vast majority maintain normal civilized values as much as they can. If you are stopped try to be compliant.  If you are attacked, and you think it is a life-threatening situation, you must defend your self ruthlessly:   Resorting to violence is not recommended if avoidable but if you must do so then do not  hesitate;  move any resultant dead bodies so they are hidden if you can, and then leave the region immediately.  You must get off the road you are on as soon as possible.  Entanglement with law-enforcement agencies will put an immediate stop to your evacuation.

REMEMBER THAT MOST PEOPLE WILL BE ON YOUR SIDE AND TRY TO HELP YOU. THE PROBABILITY OF MEETING A BAD PERSON IS EXTREMELY SMALL SO DO NOT OVER-REACT.

Allow three quarts of liquids per day for the trip, for each person. Consume 1/2 tablespoonful of salt per day to avoid muscle cramps [add to the water if necessary]. Carry the water in the vehicle in which the people are traveling.
