Comment on When people die in wildfires, is it that the fire spread too fast for people to mobilise escape? Or more that people were delayed leaving?

In places like Oregon and Washington it’s more that there’s only few roads or off road trails to get out. Traffic gets backed up near larger towns. Also you can’t really get a grasp of how close it is when you can see over the hills or trees
