EOC offers post-storm driving tips What are you lookin' at? u Rains from Tropical Storm Fay have caused some road tl G flooding in Lee County. All drivers should exercise caution -4-1 on wet roads. u o Here are a few safety tips recommended by the Lee a. County Emergency Operations Center: • Do not drive through water if you can not sec the road surface through the water. Turn around, don't drown. • Careful driving will not only improve your safety, but will help the road surface stay in better safer condition. Road beds in Southwest Florida can easily be damaged by the combination of standing water and harsh driving. This problem is especially prevalent on unpavedr dirt and gravel surface roads. • If you must drive on unimproved roads, limit the num- ber of trips and slow your speed as much as practical to u limit damage to the road surface. Avoid high speed turns *- and spinning tires, as these maneuvers cause substantial oi- damage to the road surface. a • Avoid driving on private roads, especially those sur- faced with dirt or gravel, unless you have the owner's spe- I cific permission and a need to be there.
