Question

jorge is driving his truck in the rain when he approaches a road that seems to be quickly flooding. what should he do? he should turn around and head for higher ground. he should drive through it as quickly as possible. nothing in particular. trucks are large enough to withstand floodwater. he should find a ditch to lie flat in.

Explanation:

When encountering a flooding road, driving through it quickly (which could lead to stalling in deeper water) or assuming a truck can withstand floodwater (floodwaters can be deceptively powerful and depth - unknown) are dangerous. Lying flat in a ditch is also not a safe option as floodwaters can rise rapidly. Turning around and heading for higher ground is the safest choice as it gets the driver out of the path of potential flood - related hazards like rising water levels, which can damage the vehicle and endanger the driver.

Answer:

He should turn around and head for higher ground.
