Additionally, if there are enemy planes nearby, traffic will have (mostly) stopped and anyone not manning an AAA gun will be in an air raid shelter - or at least off the streets.
And that's not counting towns which are near the actual battlefield, where the civilians and livestock are long gone - dead or fled.
