Why did she expect Clark to be in with all the traffic lights on the fritz?
Because he a) walks, b) flies, c) doesn't take a car.

According to Eugene, he needs a strong central computer / server to work from. I'm sure they don't have one of those at the jail.
Plus if people like Mayson Drake at the DAs office think Reed is right that Laderman engineered this problem, the last thing they will give him computer access.
