Do you have a plan in place if an EMP Attack or major Solar Flare occurs? the second either of these scenarios happen youll more then likely be stranded without a motorized vehicle where ever you may be if you drive a modern vehicle (post 1974). You could be at work, your wife could be at work... you could be out of town... i think everyone should have a plan in place...meeting locations, where your wife or kids should go if they are at school or work. "go to this location and wait for me to arrive to help make our journy safe back to the house/BOL". it would be a good idea to pre-plan routes you will take depending on where you will be when a disaster occurs.
It would also be a good idea to have basic essentials in your vehicle at all times so if your stranded you have everything youll need for your journy to meet up with family or back to your house. depending on your daily commute your list of items might just be a single small bottle of water because you only work 10 miles from home. what ever your plan may be i say get it put in place now so you dont get caught with your pants down.
Im working on my plan now... just thought id share my thinking... i know this isnt anything new but i bet at least one guy on here hasnt thought this scenario through yet.
