Can You Pass Through States with Stay at Home Orders?

[HadEnough]

We are thinking of heading to our boat for the summer in the epicenter of the virus. Taking it away from there and quarantining ourselves on it for the summer.

We are in Florida and are looking at going to NYC.

Delaware, for example, has a stay at home order.

Can we drive through Delaware then store the RV in NJ or should we expect to be stopped? I don't understand how this all works for travelers as it's all worded to people living in houses.

Hunker where you can.
We are in northern Michigan leaving the Detroit area was a no brainer.
We left Florida early this year as the handwriting was on the wall. We didn't need anyone to tell us to look out for our own safety.
We stayed far from the people in our RV park for over a week before leaving.
We studied the Inet and learned of the failing of our government and realized they were either in denial or were interested in other things than the American people.
Bottom line it is your family and your neighbors this will not last forever so hunker down and stay hunkered till this leaves or is considered safe by the CDC not the current government

The boat IS the hunkering down.

Staying in Florida I have 36 unavoidable exposures to public areas over the next 6 months. Going to the boat I have 9, including 7 stops for fuel in the way up.

So the safe move is the boat. The risky move is staying in Florida.

I'm actually really glad a lot of people don't understand this or the boat would probably be stolen already. Lol

We've been on self quarantine for 3 weeks here already. Florida is just starting to pop off with Covid-19. It'll get a lot worse before it gets better. NY will have run its course by mid summer probably.

Thanks for those of you who have expressed condolences. At this point it appears the grandmother is holding her own. Time will tell.

My suggestion to all of you is to put your computers down, shut off the television, only check news once or twice a day and get outside. We have a "stay-at-home" order which means stay home as much as you can. However, NH officials have recommended going outside and walk, hike, bike, whatever. State and local parks are open and you are required to "social distance". Beaches are closed because they are worried about people congregating. The other recommendation is to stay local, i.e, go to park that's close to you. This cuts down on the driving, will take stress off the more popular areas and will keep gas consumption down and thereby reducing exposure. A very reasonable plan.

What is that supposed to mean? A person from NY? Have some kind of problem with NY? People are carrying this thing worldwide. That is why it is called an infectious pandemic,literally (infect/spread) (pan) world wide (demic) pertaining to a population.

So once again what is your statement meant to convey?

I don't think is was meant to offend New Yorker's or anyone else.
NY is currently the hotspot for the country.
As a result NY'ers and others need to shelter in place and avoid heading to resort areas or vacation homes to ride out the pandemic.
There is and emphasis on NY'ers because NY is the current hotspot.
They are leading in new cases and deaths.

"Stupid is as stupid does"

Stupid is terminal, there is no known cure for it. There is hope that an ignorant person can be educated but there is no hope for the stupid person.

This virus has hit home. My son's girlfriend's grandfather died in NY from it. Her grandmother is hospitalized with it and it's not looking good. Both are in their mid-80s. I still stand by my original comments that for MOST of us it won't be an issue and chances of catching it are slim for the average person. But please, stop making fun of the virus, stop criticizing the President, grow up and start being helpful instead of holier-than-thou. If you are nervous, stay home. If you aren't, be careful. If you won't be careful, stay away from people. I challenge any of you to say what YOU would have done.
I challenge any other President to say what THEY would have done.
Hindsight is always 2020. We need to come together right now, not push each other apart.

Agree, we do have to come together. I am so sorry for your families loss and circumstances. I will leave responses to your challenges to others.

Fortunately in AZ and Tucson there are no stay at home orders. So far we spent a couple of days doing some non-essential RZR riding, I worked 3 days this week at my non-essential part-time job at the RV dealership, and we're doing a few days of non-essential camping/RZR riding next week. Basically we are not staying home and are trying to live the same life we would without this over-hyped flu bug.

One other thought: What authority does a politician have to force people to stay home? Inspite of this so-called virus emergency we still have Constitutional Rights to move freely about the US and to freely assemble. A governor or mayor does not have the right to restrict our movements. My daughter's family was in California this past week for a vacation and the governor closed the public beaches. Cops were posted to force compliance. Did the governor have the legal authority to do that? Hopefully, someone will challenge the governors actions as being unconstitutional.

I understand that there are perceived measures to fight this virus but the Constitution needs to regarded and We-the-People need to stand up to and fight politicians who insist on taking away our Constitutional Rights. If they feel they can violate our rights during this period they will violate our rights in other situations.

This is not about the constitution This is about saving lives
It maybe hard for you to grasp but people in NYC are dying.
Just like Italy the NYC health system is overwhelmed
THe fear is that unless we control the spread by staying put, other regions will have there system overwhelmed
You call it an over hyped flu but its not just about the flu
Once the hospitals become overwhelmed it becomes hard to be treated for anything else
If you show up at the hospital with an ailment other than the virus there is literally no where to put you No Doctors to treat you in a timely fashion etc. The medical system at NYC hospitals is collapsing. If the virus continues to spread other area health systems will also collapse due to virus cases Meanwhile almost in the back ground people continue to die.
So before you rush to the courts with constitutional arguments keep in mind the court system in MD is closed.
The entire state is closed as much as feasible.
I hope you understand it just no about catching the flu. It's more about spreading the flu Some can get it and have minimal symptoms while some will have devastating symptoms. As it spreads many will require hospitalization. We simply don't have the medical resources to handle the virus and everything else!
This would not be a good time to have a major ailment, because getting treatment maybe hard to do. But be forewarned the shut down is for real there are major areas of the country both rural and urban that are closed

With some people it's always about the Constitution and THEIR rights and freedoms. Like someone else said, and it may have been you and I'm paraphrasing, you can get your freedom back, but not your life. Sounds pretty simple to me, don't know why it's so hard to understand for some.

Why are you pulling his leg? He's asking what he believes to be a serious question.
You are obviously are not in one of these shut down areas. Their is enough anxiety and angst without creating more for fun.

I have seen 2 of your posts (one other also concerning the virus), neither one was helpful to the original posters questions/concerns, only politically motivated. Hope the ones I haven't seen are more informative. Stay healthy and safe.

Thank you, Crowe...well said. I’m sorry about your son’s girlfriend’s grandparents. My parents are the same age, and are probably my biggest concern right now. I talk to them often, encourage them to stay home, but you never know what they are going to do.

folks who think we might only have 12 years left anyway

I don't even know what this means. It must be some dog whistle my ears are not tuned to hear.

In other news, and in a typical extreme flip-flop, our fearless leader is now tweeting that we need to immediately manufacture a gazillion ventilators.
