I love all the high and mighty people here with the benefit of hindsight. These people obviously underestimated how deep the water is. I live in the countryside and our lanes often get flooded after heavy rainfall. Sometimes it’s easy to underestimate how deep the water coming off the fields has got. If you’re used to the lanes and fording floods, I can see how easy it would be to not realise the waters gotten deeper than usual.

[@withapulse2000]

Hate to admit this but I suffered this fate in a Jaguar XJ40 20 yrs back. It was at night and pouring with rain so was not aware how deep the water was with the drains blocked with leaves, although saw the road was flooded and thought it would be a hoot to drive through fast. At the time I charged through the water and I never gave it a thought or even knew that the air intake pipe for the engine was quite low down in the engine bay. Even if it was high up....creating a bow wave like on this video is still going to suck in water. I was able to limp home a few hundred metres further up the road and the next morning took out the spark plugs and cranked the engine over and water gushed up out of the spark-plug holes like a sperm whale blowing its breather hole. "That's not good I thought". The engine was reconditioned, but what shocked me was when the mechanic showed me how the piston conrods were literally bent!.......really rammed home how incompressable water is. Needless to say won't do it again.

[@JasonEagles-hw4rl]

Happened to me, only I luckily only blocked the exhaust. I drove slowly through a big, what I thought was a puddle, turned out to be much deeper than I expected. I got lucky. All these people here judging these people probably live in cities and don’t have to deal with the regular flooding in rural areas. It’s very easy to misjudge how deep the water is, especially if your used to fording a bit of a flood, it only takes one time for it to get half a foot deeper than normal and the rest is history.

[@soundseeker63]

What astonishes me the most is how so many people, far from stopping and getting out to asses the situation properly, fail to even slow down, or in many cases, even ACCELERATE INTO the water! 😖 How thick can you get?! About half of these could have probably made it through if they'd just taken it at a sensible speed. Seeing all these perfectly good vehicles get junked because so many people seem to lack even a grain of situational awareness is really annoying!
