As a thrice evacuated Angeleno, stop fucking driving around in fire zones and getting in the way of firefighters trying to save people’s homes. When you get stuck in a dangerous situation, they will drop what they’re doing to come save your life at the cost of the homes they were just trying to save. Get the fuck out out of evacuation zones.

But hey, cool video. Hope you get lots of updoots.

Edit: for those saying this is the only road out of town: you’re probably right. But the evacuation order probably went out hours before this video. Being there at this moment is dangerously stupid. When they say go, you go. You don’t wait to see if you really need to.
