Bridge crossing over the Condamine River in Southern Queensland, Australia
May 2008

Слайд 2Flooding in the upper Condamine in early January 2008 produced conditions

unseen for more than a decade.

Слайд 4A car appears on the far side of the flooded bridge.

The driver seems to be thinking about going for it.

Слайд 5Ignoring the “Road Closed” sign, he heads straight in. Doesn’t even

bother walking in a little to check the depth.

Слайд 7Yes, he’s towing a boat.


Слайд 8The river is about 150 meters across and the current is

really strong.

Слайд 9This chart shows the peak of the flood recorded at the

bridge recording station. The crossing attempt was made at 6 p.m.—the highest possible level.

Слайд 10The Bridge is normally 6-7 meters above the water level here.


Слайд 11The current pushes the vehicle and boat downstream.


Слайд 12Note that there is now way to tell whether the bridge

has been washed away.

Слайд 14Note also the youthful passenger—a great lesson in risk management from

the kid’s father at the wheel.

Слайд 15The driver seemed nonchalant as he opened the doors to let

the water drain out. He announced that he had been through deeper water than that.

Слайд 16Questions
Would you like to be his insurance agent?
If he had a

snorkel, would he try to drive underwater?
Is this maneuver recommended in the owner’s manual?
Did he forget that he wasn’t in the boat, towing the vehicle, instead of vice versa?

Слайд 17Closing Thought
From Frank Young, emergency management director in Warren County, Ohio,

commenting during the March 2008 floods: “The biggest problem has been people driving into floodwater. There are a lot of stupid people. When that sign says, ‘Road closed, high water,’ that’s what it means.”
