How many school busses do you have in 500mi radius? Would guess it's probably around that area. They have drivers and could be in the area in <10hrs after the plan is activated.

You think so, eh? What percentage of drivers do you think would show up, given that many of their families would be in danger themselves?

In a 500 mile radius? Not many of their families would be in (real) danger.
