Question

Because of the horrible destruction they cause, hurricanes take many

lives each year. The worst part of this is people don't have to die from
these disasters. Having an established evacuation plan is one thing that
can be done to prevent lives from being lost. People that live in the
cities and towns in the paths of hurricanes need to be evacuated. Not
everyone who live in these cities and towns have transportation, so the
city must provide ways for these individuals to be picked up and
dropped off at the arranged, safe drop-off zones. Having better
evacuation procedures would save lives.
