Very true. I think about it all the time. How do you evacuate if you have no resources???

Completely unrelated situation but I thought of people in Russia who drive, walk, bike to Kazakhstan, Georgia and Mongolia to escape draft and how they often have to give bribes to Russian police and recruiters if they get stopped. But what if one has nothing? No money for bribes? No money to feed themselves as some walk to the borders for like 3 days.

Same here with hurricanes. No car? No money for gas. No money for hotel. No money to stock up your pantry. What happens to those people???? Who takes care of them?
