Check flood and traffic warnings before travel. Do not drive through floodwater: it can hide displaced covers, damaged road surfaces and debris, as well as contamination. Choose a safe alternative or wait in a safe place. Call 999 if anyone is in immediate danger. Engine speed or a low gear does not make an unknown flooded route safe.
