Good plan, Texas.
8:08 P.M. - HOUSTON (AP) -- The plan envisioned by Texas officials to ensure an orderly evacuation to avoid scenes of Hurricane Katrina from their cities has left thousands stranded on highways.
Drivers seem to be off the roads by tonight, but their abandoned cars marked with police tape litter the roadside.
Motorists clogged roadways on evacuation orders to get away from Houston. They were stranded, running out of gas and in extreme heat.
Gas trucks rumored to be on the way never came. Neither did buses.
