  • Some Safety Tips
    • Visit www.ReadyVirginia.gov
    • Use flashlights for emergency lighting instead of candles.
    • Unplug electrical equipment until a steady power supply returns.
    • Practice proper generator and surface heater safety.
    • Leave one light turned on so you know when power is restored.
    • Eliminate unnecessary travel, especially by car. Traffic signals will stop working during an outage, creating traffic congestion.
    • If you come upon a non-working traffic signal, treat each traffic light as a four-way stop, with the driver on the right having the right-of-way.
    • Proceed with caution only when traffic permits and enter intersections only when it is safe to do so, using your turn signals to let other motorists know your intentions.
    • If traffic lights are on flash, treat a flashing red as a stop (treat it like a stop sign). For flashing yellow, proceed with caution.
