Drivers swamp car into streambed and rivers

From our weekly issue dated May 21, 2008

Car stuck in the river

Flooded carburetors can be a problem, but flooded four-by-four vehicles that become swamped when their operators drive them into streambeds and rivers are another matter altogether. Such was the case Thursday evening, May 15, at the end of Sixth Street in Kerby (above). And a similar situation occurred Friday night, May 16 at Illinois River ‘Forks’ State Park in Cave Junction (below). Drivers are strongly advised against running their rigs in the waterways.
