Driving In Flood Water Advice!

Good Morning To You All,

As you have probably seen, it is very wet out there and we have received numerous reports of standing water across Richmondshire. If you are driving, please take extra care and remember please don’t drive through standing water - as well as the water damaging your car, there may be hazards under the water you can’t see, or it may be a lot deeper than you realise.

If you see a sign to say that the road is closed due to flooding, remember the sign is there for a reason. Don’t try to drive through or you might get stuck.

If you are driving a larger vehicle, do not go through flood water at speed as this creates a ‘bow wave’ that can then cause flooding to adjacent properties.

When driving, if heavy rain is making visibility difficult, pull over if possible.

Remember that roads will be slippery during wet conditions.

Also, don’t try and walk-through floodwater that is above knee level, as the force of the water could easily knock you off your feet. There is also a danger of open manholes, trenches or other hazards that you can’t see.

Live flood warning and alerts are available on the Environment Agency website.

If you found this alert useful, I would really appreciate it if you would kindly respond accordingly below, as I can then monitor future content.

Regards

Martin
