Reply to comment by ChefGuru in Where do the emergency exits in the Squirrel Hill tunnel come out? Wouldn’t they have to be In people’s backyards? by sqqueen2
So everybody stuck in a tunnel of fire and smoke runs through a small passageway to the other side of the tunnel where there’s still ongoing traffic? Great call from the tunnel guys lmao

Damn... if only traffic could be stopped if there was a fire in one side of the tunnel. It's too bad that there's no possible way for that to happen, and that everyone escaping a fire would be forced to run directly into speeding traffic.

Right? I feel like maybe if someone invented a light to put at one end of the tunnel as a warning system to stop traffic. Maybe blue? Or purple? Not sure what colors could be used, just spitballing……

It is kinda funny to think the tunnel staff and emergency services would just let traffic continue on as normal through the second tunnel as they use it as an evacuation route.
Tunnel guy screaming over the noise at an evacuating motorist "so sorry sir, it's the Tuesday special at olive garden! We need to keep these people moving! Try to stick close to the walls!"
