5 Tips For a Flooded Vehicle in Baton Rouge
Baton Rouge has been hit with heavy rains and widespread flooding, and we want you to be equipped with how to handle a flooded vehicle. Gerry Lane Chevrolet has compiled a list of what to do if your car, truck or SUV was affected by a flash flood or high water.
