As Hurricane Milton Bears Down on Florida’s West Coast, Residents Take Precautions to Safeguard Their Vehicles from Potential Damage.

With Hurricane Milton approaching the southern coast of Florida, residents are taking measures to protect their valuable assets, including their beloved vehicles.

Social media platforms are abuzz with images of car owners relocating their vehicles to higher ground, either in parking lots with elevated land or open spaces away from trees to minimize the risk of falling debris.

One notable strategy shared online is the formation of a neat line of cars parked on a bridge in Pinellas County. Bridges are typically less prone to flooding and devoid of trees, making them a strategic choice for temporary vehicle storage during hurricanes.

For those with garage spaces, innovative solutions include encasing their cars in large plastic bags or raising them on bricks to prevent water damage in case of flooding.
