This is a possible limited series or a one-off TV movie perhaps. It centers around a family of four (mom, dad, son, daughter) that lives in LA and a disaster strikes. They then try to leave LA but the streets have 1000s of deserted cars so they set off on foot. They travel North and wind up getting robbed and I think the mom dies. They eventually reach a good community in Northern California or Oregon and they are able to settle down as society begins to rebuild from the disaster that occurred. In the end, the father gets struck by a rusty nail and dies of Tetanus in the community. It was narrated I think and I believe I watch in the lates 2000s, early 2010s. Possible networks include Discovery Channel and Animal Planet. Thanks!
