Don’t wash your car on your driveway or in the street.
Soap suds flow to the nearest storm drain, then
directly into the nearest creek. That could kill fish and
other aquatic life.
Instead, park your car on your lawn to wash it. Or,
better yet, take your car to a professional car wash
where the water is cleaned. You’ll have a clean car and
all of us will have clean streams.
