Living in Indiana we shouldn’t have to say this, but we have to since people do not listen.
DO NOT DRIVE INTO FLOODWATERS and OBEY TRAFFIC SIGNS!

Turning around when you see water on a road may be a hassle and inconvenient, but it may save your life #TurnAroundDontDrown

If a road is closed, obey traffic signs and public safety officials and find another route. #INFloodSafety #TurnAroundDontDrown

Also of note…
Flood waters may get into water wells and cause boil water advisories. Stay aware and check with your local water company for more info.
