Almost flipped my bus and landed in the lake...

This place is definitely not a place to go. The roads have massive chunks taken out of them and I had it back up the entire weird road. Plus I have no place to park. Every spot is grass and everything is rain-sodding. I almost flipped my bus a couple times.
