Preposterous Evolutionary Zombie logic (Run ‘em over)
I find it ridiculous that the surviving humans are not using more machinery. Vehicles in particular. I understand gas is no longer ripe, but with the kind of machine-centric society we’re living in, there is no doubt in my mind that people would still be using motorized vehicles deep into a zombie apocalypse. Refining methods, or the complete reengineering of current vehicles in isolated corners of the zombie world. I understand that motors can be loud and therefore appear as an impractical option for some, but the benefits outweigh the cons, distance covered in a capable vehicle far outmatches the capabilities of any other form of transportation, assuming fuel posts are put in place and supplied which would be a practical approach to outreach and growth. It would be the Wild West for many years, but wouldn’t it be an awesome spectacle for the screen. ‘Governing forces’ in the show would be far more powerful and excitingly competent if they expanded through the re-colonization of their land from the clinging grasp of the walking dead… with the use of brute force machinery. Is this logic sound? Perhaps the localized nature of the show is more appealing than my expansionist ‘mad max’ take on the zombie apocalypse. Let me know.
