Due to the possibility for flash flooding and heavy rains this week, you need to take precautionary measures before driving.

Below are a few helpful tips to help you drive in heavy rains:

• Plan ahead. Although it’s best to avoid heavy rain, planning ahead can help you avoid traffic, hazardous conditions and areas prone to flooding.
• Use your headlights. Heavy rains can decrease visibility. Make sure you have your headlights on to make yourself visible to others.
• Drive slowly and maintain additional space between you and other vehicles at all times.
