      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.

    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.

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.

    Put in lowest gear, rev engine hard to keep up gas pressure in tail pipe, enter the water very slowly so as not to make a bow wave over front of vehicle. Crawl through at 5 mph.

      The amount of claims from people driving through Fords would have zero effect on the general insurance costs. There are far more claims for people failing to give way, running into the back of other cars, stolen cars, loss of control, etc etc etc.

    They are going to hsve to introduce advice on how to and when not drive through water into the driving test. Thay will keep a few idiots off the road.
    I believe that the advice to keep the revs up is taken to mean drive fast. Seriously. I believe they misunderstand that keeping the revs up to keep water out of the exhaust is to go fast. Nope. Higher revs, slow speed, no bow wave. If in doubt don't drive through. If you are confident enough to do it then reverse through but use higher revs (not speed). Contrary to what some drivers think deisels too can be hydro locked. They may not suffer damage so easily but that is simply down to the fact deisels operate under higher internal pressures so are built correspondingly stronger.
