It also shared road safety advice:
“Turn Around, Don’t Drown!”
- If you see barricades out for a road closure, don’t drive around them and don’t move them.
Be aware of invisible damage.
- High water can cause undermining / berm washouts, which makes it dangerous to drive.
Slow down and stay aware.
- Don’t drive through water on the road, even if there isn’t a barricade.
