“Also, Hitler had ordered the Luftwaffe to strafe French civilians fleeing the battle areas on foot on the roads. The purpose of this, according to the Nazis, was to create terror.”
One ( of many) of the major factors that prevented French and British forces from getting reenforcements, supplies and such to the front was the absolute gridlock created on the roadways by all those terror filled fleeing civilians.

"Come, shall we go and kill us venison?
And yet it irks me the poor dappled fools,
Being native burghers of this desert city,
Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."
