I don't know about anyone else out there, but I'm sure there's a few that are annoyed with the local roads flooding here in Somerset/In other areas. Because I live quite out in the sticks, the roads aren't as well maintained. There's a place near me, with fields about and a road that runs through the centre which floods all over the road. My partner (who is a mechanic!! )stupidly drove through it in his BMW (which is also lowered) and it came up just below headlights. How it didn't get damaged I don't know. You know what they say about mechanics and their own cars!
A few days later and a few more nights of rain, the flood had developed a current, and closed the road down.
This brings to the point... My partner has been on many breakdowns where people still continue to drive through them? Why! Sometimes it might not look deep I suppose, but if it's across the road, and I can't see any lines in the road I wouldn't attempt!..
Any stories anyone??
