Police are reminding all motorists travelling on south-east Queensland roads there is no reason good enough to be driving through flood waters.
With weather forecasts in the state’s southeast this week predicting heavy rain and increased river levels, police are expecting to see some of our roads affected.
Motorists are reminded that road closures and conditions can change rapidly as creeks and waterways rise and fall quickly.
Police are warning motorists not to ignore road closure signs as they are there to protect travellers from washouts, craters, and other hazards.
During wet weather, drivers are asked to plan their trips carefully, regularly monitor the traffic and travel information site and allow additional travel time, incorporating travelling at lower speeds, delays, and diversions.
