Driving on the road during rush hour is nerve wracking. Driving during a thunderstorm can be downright scary. The first thing you want to do is slow down. Turn on your headlights and wiper blades. If hail starts falling, exit the highway try to find a covered place to park. Never attempt to cross a flooded roadway. Take your time and stay focused on the road until you safely arrive at your destination.
