Caution: Power Lines Down!
Danger lies in wait near all downed power lines. What appears to be nothing more than a bunch of dead wires lying on the ground can easily cause you to be dead and lying on the ground!
Stay Clear of All Downed Power Lines
Assume All Wires are Energized and May be Fatal if Touched!
Treat all downed, hanging or burning wires as though they are "live" (energized) and stay away from them. Be especially attentive to children who might be outdoors if fallen wires are in the neighborhood. Report any downed, hanging or burning wires by calling 911. If you happen to be in a vehicle and wires are on or near it, stay in your vehicle and tell others not to touch it. Call for help on your cell phone or have others call for help by dialing 911.
