AA flood water advice.

[andyd]

Why slow down?

Driving fast through water is dangerous, inconsiderate and can end up being very expensive.

Your tyres can lose contact with the road, causing you to lose steering control – called aquaplaning. If you feel it happening, hold the steering lightly and lift off to slow down gently until your tyres grip again.

At anything above a slow crawl you’ll throw water onto pavements, soaking pedestrians or cyclists. You could be fined and get points on your licence for this.

It only takes an egg cupful of water to be sucked into your engine to wreck it, and on many cars the engine’s air intake is low down at the front.

Yes it said Snodland on the news earlier.
Bad news for Kent area, but weather is a joke all over the country and reports it may be like it until early July
Not a good year so far for car shows!!!
