FALUN - Two Saline County residents added supporting evidence to the concept that it isn't safe to attempt to drive through water over roadways, and they did so at the same location.

Deputies were first sent to Falun Road about a half mile east of S. Burma Road at approximately 11:30 a.m. Saturday for the report of a vehicle in a water-filled ditch. Breanna Call, 30, of Falun, was westbound on Falun Road in a 1980 Mercedes when the car either hydroplaned or was washed into the ditch, Saline County Sheriff Roger Soldan said this morning.

Then, at approximately 3:50 p.m. Saturday, deputies were sent to the same location for the report of a 2013 Buick Verano driven by Karlee York, 31, of Salina, that had hydroplaned into the ditch, Soldan said.
Neither woman was injured.
Soldan said water tends to spill over that stretch of Falun Road when it rains.
