These confidently incorrect motorists attempting to drive through a flood is a jaw-dropping watch
A salutary reminder now for drivers of very expensive cars (and indeed very cheap ones) not to attempt to drive through a flooded road, no matter how confident you’re feeling about it.
It’s a TikTok video – a whole bunch, in fact – that have been going viral after they were posted by @BENGREGERS and found their way onto Twitter (and everywhere else, no doubt).

Stay safe, everyone!
Very much enjoying the videos of people thick enough to drive their expensive cars into flooded roads, thinking it’s invincible, then it coming out the other side absolutely fucked. pic.twitter.com/HP0C5q0ym0

The more I see these the more I am convinced you could cause a mass casualty event with British motorists by painting a tunnel entrance onto a wall https://t.co/i1TNX5djpJ

Hey I worked for a safety company & seriously: Do Not Do This. Many people died way before their time trying to save 10 minutes.
Turn around,
Don't drown,
Your car is not a boat

Big car driver when their illusion of invincibility and lack of care meets the immutability of a big puddle https://t.co/Lf8nTPIAkh

They all think they are Roger Moore in his Lotus Elan sub. Now their car is worth less than a sub sandwich. https://t.co/GS5A1cGdwV

And finally, this.
Thing is if you deliberately drive through one of those puddles and your car packs in, there’s a very good chance your insurance won’t cover it.
