00:00Good evening Kapuso! I am your Kuya Kim who will give you the trivia behind the trending news.

00:09Because of the bad weather, it became a challenge for many drivers to say goodbye to the roads.

00:15Just like the experience of a family returning home from an outing, the road was flooded with flash floods near this hill.

00:24Jan! Jan! Jan!

00:27If you encounter a scene like this on the road, will you continue?

00:30Jan! Jan! Jan!

00:32This is what John's family faced when they passed by Tamaraw Falls in Puerto Galera.

00:36My family and I were outing. We were on our way home.

00:39But because of the bad weather, the flash floods that were just next to the road did not get worse.

00:44The flash floods were very strong. My companion was very calm.

00:48Jan! Jan!

00:50But John could not go back.

00:52There were a lot of vehicles in the back. I also looked at the road.

00:55When I saw that there were guardrails on the right, I said, I can do it.

00:58Jan! Jan! Mobile!

01:00Until...

01:02Oh no! Mobile!

01:05Thank you! Thank you!

01:11I'm so scared!

01:13They passed through safely.

01:14We felt so light when we passed through.

01:17Because there are a lot of roads that are now flooded due to the bad weather,

01:20what should be done in the face of such a situation?

01:24Brother Kim, let's go!

01:26The first thing to do is to remain calm and observe the surroundings.

01:30Be observant right away. Look at where the water flows.

01:33Avoid where the water is going. Then avoid distraction.

01:37If you see a flood, avoid it if possible.

01:39Do not force to pass or cross.

01:41Because maybe later, it's deep.

01:43You don't know what's underneath. It might damage your vehicle.

01:47Find another route.

01:48Just remember to run the vehicle.

01:49If you increase your speed, your vehicle might be out of control.

01:53Maintain a safe distance if there are vehicles in front of you.

01:57Remember to use the brakes because the road is slippery.

02:00Even if the machine will kill you, don't force it to pass.

02:03Because it can damage the machine even more.

02:05If the flood reached the road, look for a high area.

02:09As much as possible, we don't leave our vehicle.

02:11Why? Is the water really high?

02:13Leave the vehicle. Your safety is your utmost concern.

02:18But do you have any idea how strong the flood is?

02:26According to the National Weather Service of America,

02:28even if the flood is only 6 inches high, it can make a person fall.

02:34While the flood is 12 inches high, even a small vehicle can handle it.

02:40So if possible, whenever there is a flood,

02:42we should stay inside our houses to be safe.

02:45Meanwhile, to find out the trivia behind the viral news,

02:47tweet or comment,

02:49Hashtag Kuya Kim, what's next?

02:51Always remember, the important thing is to know.

02:53I am Kuya Kim and I will answer you 24 hours.
