State road 80 curved gently underneath the excessively lofty water levels of nearby Fort Gibson Reservoir. Descending downhill on a curve, then driving unaware into this inundation, wouldn’t have been such a gentle endeavor! Fortunately, the road was closed and barricaded about a hundred yards behind the view. Those who drive around or remove such barricades, just to cut across a flooded route, are deliberately abdicating their personal responsibility to friends and loved ones to practice safe driving.
