Never Cross a Flooded Road

Quote:
Whether it is a hurricane, severe thunderstorm, or other tropical weather system, heavy rainfall anywhere in the United States causes flooding problems. When a large amount of rain falls over a short period of time, ditches, rivers, and lakes become filled with water and overflow into low-lying or poorly drained areas. Never cross a flooded road. As water depth increases or a greater area is covered by moving water, a greater force will be exerted. If you cannot see the road or its line markings, do not drive through the water.
