Comment on Future apocalypse movies won't have survivors scavaging abandoned cars.
Bytemeister@lemmy.world 3 days agoYou think you’re going to drive anywhere 2 years after the apocalypse?
After a winter or two, between abandoned vehicles and lack of maintenance, the roads are going to be impossible to navigate for any distance that you couldn’t just walk or bike.

Depends where you are, in my neck of the woods there are plenty of roads that have been largely abandoned for 20 plus years and are still drivable. Not a comfy ride but still a drive none the less.
Most road damage comes from being driven on so assuming it doesn’t get undermined most would still be usable even ten years after abandonment, not factoring in getting buried or flooded.
