DFES’s State Emergency Service advises motorists to:
• Slow down, turn your lights on and keep a safe distance from other drivers
• If it is raining heavily and you cannot see, pull over and park with your hazard lights on until the rain clears
• Take care in areas that have been flooded and do not drive into water of unknown depth and current
• Be careful on gravel roads as surfaces will be slippery and muddy, and vehicles could become bogged.
