We can’t stress this enough, 🌧 does not cause crashes, how you drive in the 🌧 does. Turn your lights on. SLOW DOWN, slow down, slow down. Leave EXTRA SPACE between your 🚗 & the 🚙 ahead of you. Drive in the middle lanes, outside lanes tend to flood.NEVER🚗through flood waters.

Remember, rain doesn't cause collisions, how you drive in the rain does.SLOW your speeds, keep both hands on the steering wheel, leave plenty of space between you & other vehicles.Before you drive check tires, wipers, head/brake lights,& road conditions. Buckle up @CHP_HQ @OTS_CA
Closures are in effect on freeways and state highways in @CountyofLA and @CountyVentura due to flooding and slides. Allow extra time to get to your destination and use for info on current road conditions. #CAstorm
