I would have alternative routes mapped out and not the main highways either. Then do a recon of the routes you’ve chosen in each season, what is doable in the summer might not be in the winter! As for money, I would start to stash away silver & gold coins of small sizes for easier use. Don’t expect to get any change back when you use them! Have a Bug-out Bag that is well stocked for at least a week of essential items! Periodically check and restock the bag too as things will expire. Have a gun & ammo (a bow set is also good) Make sure all members of your family or bug-out group know where to go, best if there is a meeting point where you can all get together before you travel. And above all DON’T be obvious with what you are doing! Don’t act nervous or agitated, try to pack your Bug-out vehicle at night when no one is around, and drive within the speed limits.
Personally I would strongly recommend getting out of the cities now as they will very quickly turn into an area of mass chaos and mayhem! Remember that any city has at most 24 hours of food & water on hand at any given moment and when trouble comes that will disappear very rapidly, then all hell will break loose.

Being un-prepared without knowlegde about where you intend to bug out is just the same as jumping from 1 fire to another. Have a plan ‘B’,'C’,'D’,'E’ along with gear to help make your misson successful. Being prepared before something happens. That could also mean keeping your “wits” about you not a semi-truck filled with stuff….
A person or group may discover that backroads are the only way to point B which could be a problem if you have No Gas, Lowered Car, Washed out roads, or maybe
some Thugs who think your stuff is theirs..for me being prepared means always being aware of things wherever i go…Being perpare is more a lifestlye in your everyday walk…
