On a passenger car, try to avoid flooded areas. If avoidance is impossible, smoothly move to the far right lane or pull over to the shoulder and stop, activating the hazard warning lights.
When crossing the roadway, pedestrians should look around and be predictable to other road users. In conditions of reduced visibility, it is necessary to use reflective elements and wear bright clothing.
During bad weather, refrain from travelling by bicycle and personal mobility devices!
