[@michaeld5888]

@@Chr155yboy16 We saw in one video one person in a van stopped in deep water phoning in saying he had gone through a puddle. It depends on the story getting back to the insurance company and the effort of investigating it as opposed to heavy cross subsidising of premiums, which must go on considering the standard of driving we see on the roads from people who should not be on the roads.

The Mini is just scrap now and I hope the insurance company sees this video and doesn’t pay out driving through water nearly 3ft deep.

[@mikeh2006]

​@CharlesDickson-nv2ol they won't pay out even without the video. They will inspect it and find evidence of water ingress well above the wade depth of the car through the entire vehicle. If you drive through deep water, it's on you. Insurance will always ask if it could have been avoided. And the answer almost all of the time will be yes. As we have a choice as to if we drive through thr water or not. I think the mini driver was likely aware of his situation though. The look on his face as he sat on the roof of his car said it all.

[@fdiv06]

​@mikeh2006 the insurer will always pay a reduced settlement due to drivers failure to mitigate damage. Stating that they point blank won't pay out is entirely wrong.

Very interesting psychology demonstrated here, if a puddle is 2 or 3 inches deep car drivers will try to drive around it or go carefully through the shallow side but if it’s 2 or 3 feet deep they think their car is invincible andthey try to wade through it, often unsuccessfully. our cars are so reliable these days that we think a few feet of water is fine.

[@mikeh2006]

I drive a hgv and the amount of drivers that will go onto the wrong side of the road to avoid a puddle is insane. If I'm heading right towards them it doesn't make a difference. They'd rather be hit by a truck than drive through a puddle. Not saying all drivers do that of course, but the amount that do is ridiculous.

[@glenjones6980]

@@mikeh2006 And on a single track/narrow road they expect the truck to pull on the grass as they are scared they will get stuck if they try, the concept of n 18-44 tonne truck being able to pull a car off a verge hasn't dawned on them and they somehow thin that 18-44 tonne will jut float over grass like a Dakar rally truck.

[@Lycaerix]

To be fair, I've cherished every car I've ever owned and looked after it as though it were part of the family. And therein lies the rub--very few of the people in these vids give a crap about their cars. They're nothing more than tools to them, or something akin to an item of clothing to show off to others. They're not valued. You can see the idiot at the start in the mini--he doesn't give a crap. It's just a joke to him. I'd argue few of them even care about other road users.

[@szili76]

[@johntate5050]

Most new cars are leased. When you don't own something you don't respect it like you do if you own it. I wonder how many of these weren't covered by their insurance companies. Deliberately driving through flood water usually makes your cover null & void.

Tbh for most (me included) cars are just another tool. Just like the computer. It works, you only very vaguely understand how. You do not need to understand: cars work just fine without understanding them. Plus people are tired and already late. If you don't know the risk of failure, why not try is a common attitude. What amazes me is the occasional professional driver fuckup. As they spend so much time on the road, you'd expect them to be aware of rare but serious dangers.
