Due to the government's large movements in rescuing people, the main roads towards the capital were densely packed with zombies. It's impossible to force through those numbers without getting their cars to overturn.
Magnus and the men knew this beforehand and planned to detour and take a different route, intending to save time and reduce trouble.
The Capital Research Institute was located on the south opposite of the Tourist Mountain ranges, where their base was built. With an approximate 5 kilometers in between, if it were before the Apocalypse, they would be able to reach the Research Institute in just five hours by car. Unfortunately, that is just a pipe dream in the current circumstances. To arrive at the institute by taking the alternative route, they must go through two food manufacturing factories, the largest wholesale market, and a farm.
