Mass evacuation of New Orleans.

01 Sept, 2005. New Orleans, Louisiana.
Louisiana. Mass evacuation begins. A handful of exhausted and nervous Louisiana State troopers are all that holds 20,000 plus people from the busses. Before evacuees were permitted on the bus the mood was extremely tense with troopers preparing safe exit routes should the crowd simply storm the building in their desperation to reach the busses.
