Don't believe what you read on wingnut blogs.

What good are drivers anyway if the roads are not passable?
And according to the General now in charge, they are not.
The Department of Defense's primary military liaison to the Federal Emergency Management Agency said Puerto Rico experienced the worst damage he's ever seen.

“Sometimes we don’t know what’s going to happen until the storm actually hits," Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Buchanan said in an interview published on Saturday with PBS NewsHour's Monica Villamizar.

"And this is the worst I’ve ever seen."

Now, he said, Puerto Rico is having the biggest problems in the interior of the island.

"And it's because of roads. The roads are not clear on the outside of the island and we’re slowly working our way in," he said.

"But we obviously need to get all the roads cleared so we can get supplies to people who desperately need them.”
