John Englart on Nostr: There have been 54 #Flood rescues of people in cars being washed away in #floodwaters ...
There have been 54 #Flood rescues of people in cars being washed away in #floodwaters over roads in the #VicFloods since Sunday. This is despite repeated warnings from State Emergency Services (SES) not to drive into floodwaters and that it takes as little as 15cm of water for cars to start floating.
I really do despair at the sense of people who endanger not only their own life, but the lives of rescuers. SES rescuers deserve 🎖️ medals.
