Flood Information Cars Never try to drive through floodwater.
Water can be deeper than it appears, and water levels can rise very quickly.
If a car stalls in floodwater, get out quickly and move to higher ground. These units use up the oxygen you need to breathe and give off deadly carbon monoxide which have caused people to die from suffocation. Protecting Your Home From Future Flood Damage You can reduce the risk of future flood damage to your property by taking common-sense steps when making repairs to your home or property. These steps are known as hazard mitigation. Mitigation techniques can be designed for your home to minimize the effects of floodwaters on your property and your family.
