two cars submerged under water on a car park
Is it not feasible, particularly in a long-term car park, for the operators of the site to engage a recovery company to shift the odd unattended vehicle to a better location, as the water makes it obvious that there will be an issue like this?

Why are people so stupid?? when flooding like this happens it really does make you realise there's some complete idiots out there

Why are people trying to go through deep flood water when cars get stuck there all the time? Why are people getting out in flood water with fast currents?? and needing to be rescued, or worse yet, dead.

Why are people leaving cars parked in areas known for bad flooding? or at least know about a storm coming surely or... heavy rain?? maybe they didn't know and left cars there to be washed away.....

Maybe sometimes there can be reasons, but 99% it's pure stupidness

Christ imagine if a war happened or a really really bad storm like they have in the states etc

But will they, if you have parked in a car park that is flooding when you park up.

Same with the people who drive through flood water and hydrolock their engine.
Eitherway if you claim the premiums will go up..... but surely there's gotta be a "idiot protection" for the insurance company's?

There are people in Stafford who would have had a go at driving over the Red Sea, rather than wait a few minutes for Moses to turn up.

And, why even go through the Red Sea, when you could just walk round the northern end on dry land?

'Red Sea' being an allegory for Sandon Road in the King James version.
