If you don't have one make sure you're using Waze and that will help but I run both. Also, make sure you're not with the first "group" instead leave after 10-15 cars have been released. I've been in several situations where I was the first car after they shut down the freeways/streets to get a group to pull over.
One last bit of advice is make sure your navigator can figure stuff out because they have to guide you based on instructions that are not always simple to follow.
