WHY would ANY 'police' block a road during a massive Fire? They could Not Think anyone would drive into the fire, so this IS exactly what everyone is claiming.
They could Not Think anyone would drive into the fire
According to Lani, the police's blocked road was going AWAY from the fire. Not into the fire.
In her interview video, she claimed that after she drove over the police's cones, it took her only 45 minutes to reach her home. Which was AWAY from the fire. She said that during that 45 minutes. There was NO fire, NO smoke, NO car, NO nothing on that very safe road.
After the drove over the police's cone then reached safety, Lani contacted her trapped friends. Telling them to get OUT NOW. Because the fire was coming toward them very fast.
Other witnesses said that most people who complied with the police's directions and choose to stayed at the blocked roads DIED from either smoke or fire.
The police and utilities may have been told that power lines were down and cones needed to be placed to shut down roads. I think that might be the official reasoning.

They're required to check validity of that before blocking a means of exit......you just dont throw barricades up.
