are you all seriously demonising the onlookers? theres nothing more than stupid people driving through something they shouldnt, not knowing the limitations of their own vehicles. when a lorry goes under a bridge that theyre too tall for, ripping their roof off. do you blame the onlookers, the council or the person driving the vehicle? this ford for the most part is very passable in any average car, after heavy rain its obviously going to be deeper. hence why there are water markers on the bridge so drivers know the depth, before they enter. its only the stupidity of people not thinking, or not knowing how to drive properly.

tbf the advice not to stop is spot on once youve commited that far to going through the ford, because the moment you stop forward momentum, the bow wave just rolls back, swamps the air intake & engine and its game over, and you cant reverse if the exhaust is under water already. the moment the car starts to float its open the doors time, they wont seal properly anyway so you have to accept getting wet at that stage and you might just make it through.

@@matthewsmith2787 Sure, a person committing suicide is responsible for his or her death but it doesn't take much to say don't do it. In fact it is quite the reverse here. The people are cheering them on knowing full well what the consequences are. Zero empathy or decency.

Why dont you basicly warn these people instead of filming them hoping they ruin their car?

Well, it’s kinda satisfied watching this video but this helps me by knowing what car can survive flood in my country with video like this

I'm sure the police would love to see the clip with blue Defender. Intimidating the Kia to go through and then dangerous driving in the ford. Pretty sure the Kia would have made it too if it didn't get pushed by the water from the Defender.

@@krashd most people associate a snorkel with the fully sealed and safe for water crossings raised air intake while calling it a raised air intake(as Toyota etc does call their intakes from the factory) means it’s there just to keep the air clean, especially with something like an additional cyclone cleaner on top. I mean, technically both can mean the same thing but any knowledgeable person knows the difference.

The red taxi moored up at the pier was the livelihood of the mishap driver. I wonder what exactly made him drive it into waist high water ? If he's an owner, he jumped headfirst into financial depression, if he's an employee, P45 coming up.

I reckon that sorento would have made it if not for the blue defender. I remember as a kid back in the day before the foot bridge was rebuilt, the flood used to go over it where people stand. Then they replaced it with a wooden foot bridge. Seems like it changed again sometime in the past.
