> I don't see why the petrol station needs to be a short distance away

some natural disasters can render driving trickier than walking. extremely large snow storms, for instance. you can still walk a block, but you might be hard pressed to drive 5 miles.

(i don't have a bone in this particular cautiousness-fight; personally i'd just suggest folks producing DR plans cover the relevant natural disasters for the area they live in, while balancing management desires, and a realistic assessment of their own willingness to come to work to execute a DR plan during a natural disaster.)
