When it rains in Los Angeles, there are sometimes (often?) places in which there's a visible current of water. Maybe on the street, maybe on the sidewalk, maybe in a driveway.
Here's two things you should know:
(1) Don't walk there. Currents are often surprisingly powerful. They can knock you down and/or push you downstream. You can potentially be severely injured, or even killed. Walk around it.
(2) If you ignore (1), you can't sue the property owner. It's an open and obvious danger.
Act accordingly.
