When it rains, it pours: What to do in a deluge

  • If you are driving in the rain, follow these steps for your safety and the safety of others on the roadway.
  • Check your tire tread to ensure adequate tire tread depth.  The depth should exceed 1/16th of an inch to optimize traction on wet roadways. Don’t hesitate to replace tires now.
  • Make sure your brakes, windshield wipers, and all lighting equipment are working properly. Test them at home with a partner to help.

There are many advantages to volunteering your time and effort, including: personal satisfaction, making a difference and feeling a sense of accomplishment in a job that serves a worthwhile cause. Volunteering is also a way to gain meaningful experience and contacts and can be done on a one-time basis or over the course of many months or years.
