I think it’s normal procedure in California when an evacuation is ordered for the police to go door to door making sure everyone is out. Regardless of the sirens, depending on mobile phones, which in this case did not work, is not good enough. Even if the network were running, not everyone has a phone or it’s turned off or the battery is dead. You can’t just leave those people to die. Even just driving around town with a bullhorn would have saved a lot of lives.

At least they did not receive incoming nuclear attack messages to throw even more chaos into the situation
- somat 3y agoThis, I think the reason for the large number of deaths in the event was that because there are no wild fires in Hawaii the government and people were unprepared for it. they have lava(which is not the same) but are used to dealing with that. This will happen whenever an infrequent event happens. A large earthquake hits the British islands, complete clusterfuck, japan, they handle it. A hurricane hits Florida, they are used to it. southern California, everybody goes insane.
