Even like now mid winter... ankle deep at best!! It's only a couple of miles extra if you opt to bypass to ford.. the locals know the score.. they only go through if they want to!! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Qbgrey 3,989 Posted January 23, 2022 Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 I can’t see the problem some people seem to loose all thier brain cells when it comes to floods.near me it floods bad.: Ok let’s approach said flood,oh look lots of people with cameras etc out, and look lots of cars with the bonnets up with recovery trucks and men looking under the bonnets, and look theirs a car with water coming out when he opened the door:!!!! Right let’s take a run up and force water right in my engine after all I’m sure the salesmen said these fiestas are amphibious vehicles too.

jukel123 6,570 Posted January 23, 2022 Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 (edited) Lots of people don't understand the dangers of the natural world. They think they can press the rewind button and start again. Where I fish and shoot, I have warned scores of people of the dangers of walking on the sands. Strangers can find themselves in quicksands or cut off from fast flowing tides. Some can be stroppy, others grateful, but they all get warned. It seems obvious to us that a vehicle cannot negotiate water of that depth at Rufford Ford when the river is in spate, but to others it obviously is not. A warning sign would advise everybody. Then they are taking an informed risk. The spectators are unfeeling ghouls imo. Edited January 23, 2022 by jukel123 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
