I was disturbed with the photo on the front page of the Sun Journal (April 17).

Everything you hear, from authorities and television newscasters, stresses not to walk or drive over flooded roads because of the danger of being swept away by swiftly flowing waters. So what does the Sun Journal print? A truck driving over a flooded road.

By printing that photo, it encourages people to go against safe practices.

The editors who decide what goes on the front page should stand back and think before they allow such a photo to go to print.
