Heavy rain has caused flooding, road closures and washed-out bridges in parts of Indiana. If you encounter a flooded roadway, do not drive through it.

Just a few inches of moving water can sweep a vehicle off the road, and floodwaters may hide washed-out pavement, debris or other hazards beneath the surface. Never drive around barricades or road closure signs.

Turn Around. Don't Drown. Your destination is not worth the risk.

Stay informed, monitor local conditions and learn more flood safety tips at getprepared.in.gov.
