YPD offers tips for driving in the rain
YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - With moisture in the forecast, the Yuma Police Department (YPD) is reminding the public of some important driving tips.
With the rain and high winds expected in Yuma this week, YPD says drivers should start off by checking tire treads and pressure before traveling.
They say inspecting headlights and blinkers to ensure they are properly functioning is vital, and says windshield wipers should be serviced before the rain begins.
In case of any floods, YPD says turn around and never drive through flooded roadways, especially if the water is flowing fast.
If conditions are bad, drive with hazard lights on to stay visible, and when in doubt, slow down.
