Nassau County officials temporarily ban driving on beaches after Hurricane Matthew

Nassau County officials have issued a temporary ban on driving on beaches in an effort to protect sand dunes after Hurricane Matthew.

Nassau County officials said on Tuesday that the ban includes cars, ATVs, three-wheelers, four-wheelers and dirt bikes.

Nassau County Emergency Management said four-wheelers trying to avoid the debris from Hurricane Matthew are damaging what is left of the dunes.

County officials said the public will be notified when the ban is lifted.
