They only need to be able to take two or three right turns in succession to get away from the scene quickly. Right turns on red are allowed there.

This interview with retired U.S. Army Command Sgt. Maj. Eric Haney is interesting for his theory (which agrees with some here on SI) on the killers. He believes there are two, and they know the area intimately, and are making a lot of right turns onto small streets, not using the freeway where the police stops are. He's checked out nine of the shooting sites. It's worth a read of the whole interview in the link.

"I think they're using smaller roads and feeder roads. Because one thing that greatly struck me is the ability of this person, these people, to understand the little alleys and the back ways around the strip malls because this is where the shootings are taking place.

In my own mind, I think the person is probably a delivery driver. They've had a lot of experience around the area. And the fact that the Michaels store played a part, was nearby in at least four of them that I looked at, tells me the person may have been a delivery driver. He was familiar with Michaels. He knows these small strip mall areas; he knows the little back roads and exactly where to go from there."
