 Grass fires can start and spread quickly, threatening homes and lives. If you live in an urban area, next to grassland, and a grass fire starts, walk at least two streets back. Never drive in thick smoke as it makes it difficult for you and emergency service vehicles to see you, and you may have an accident. If you live in rural Victoria, keep grasses on your property mode to help reduce vegetation around your home. And never use machinery or vehicles in grassy areas on hot dry days. Do you have a fire plan this summer?
