Yep, lots of water damaged goods in that van. So on top of buggering the van there’s gonna be a lot of angry customers! Why take the risk, just accept that taking the long way round is gonna take an extra half an hour!
The grey van was hilarious!!! Pulls up sooo slow and the HITS it soo hard!! Slow and steady with a nice small wake in front to keep the water from going in,,,,, but no,,,, wham!!! Hahaha.
The driver had no idea how much damage he had done. He was still there waiting for a mate to rescue him when we left at dark. Thanks for posting and subscribing - it really makes a difference 😊
My thought was of that driver thinking “I’ll soak the people on the bridge” then ploughs in, damages the front of the van probably floods the engine. Now he’ll get soaked getting out of the van 😂😂😂 Ah, karma.
8:35 - I am puzzled by the wise cautious approach and the then sudden, very ill-advised, acceleration into the water. A lot of my fellow CZcams viewers slag-off BMW and Audi drivers but many Vauxhall drivers run them a damned close second.
Brace yourself for this one…… The driver stopped to turn up his stereo with his selected track playing. Presumably he was expecting glory and adulation from the crowd 😆 Instead he wrecked his bosses van after working there only 2 weeks 🤦♂️
That sound like a typical land-rover here, at least that one actually gets to go through a ford. We call em Toorak tractors, on account of the suburb here of the same name with a lot of rich owners who never go off road in em.
The density and incompressibility of water are such that driving into it at speed is akin to hitting a brick wall, just ask anyone who has done a belly-flop from a high diving board.

Seems to me if you lived or worked near this crossing you would spend a few bucks and install a raised air intake particularly on the vans as they appear to have very low air intakes and are regular rescues at this crossing.
With some action with towing and the boss man calling. Brilliant 😆 Nice video. I have worked with sprinters. Some draw the air from the vent in the hood/bonnet. It is clearly marked not to put water here. driving so fast into the water geht so high, you will kill your white van. They are all like Jeremy Clarkson. “Speed and power” as solution
There are many fords in England!.. some are in picturesque areas, and bridges would not be wanted. There are other routes, that they all can take.. I have a Ford near me.. another road close by.. but people love to drive through the water!..
@@maggie2759 I agree that they look so good, but you have destroyed so many cars. And to be honest, bridges are not less picturesque. Especially when you film videos like that standing on it.
You wouldn't get me driving through one in my car!.. I live in london, but not far from the kent countryside, there is a really old fashioned pretty village not that far from me.. it still looks like the 18th century!.. with a ford.. (and a river near it.. (families have picnics there in the summer.).. a bridge would spoil it!. and yet again, you can take a different route to avoid it. Some places have conservation areas and arw very difficult to build even a wall in your own garden!..
Oh i would so love to go down there on a nice summer day after it has rained for a week so the river is nice and high....... bringing one of those folding chairs and an icebox full of icecold cider, and smoking a pipe while laughing my arse off at those blithering idiots who think their car is a boat aswell.
@@midlifecrisis101x Probably got fired after his shift. I've had to do that before. Why should I or other employees clean up their mess? I made him do it and fired him when he was done. It might seem a little harsh but hopefully he learned his lesson in the future
So much fuckwittery concentrated in one place. For one, everyone who's blown their engine. For two, the guy walking about barefoot in filthy water. That's how you get hepatitis, mate.
Yup 😊 reporter was from BBC radio interviewing another CZcamsr and the driver sent it for a swim in front of him 😆 thanks for taking the time to post a comment and subscribing 😎
Why is it that everyone blasts into the water instead of slowly crossing? Many times the water is below the air inlet and would not enter but with speed it gets forced right in! 😄😄 I would think that when you see all the onlookers and cameras watching it's best not to trying crossing 😁
It’s a treat for the viewers that watch until the end. We left the poor guy there when it got dark 😱 Thanks for watching and posting a message 😊 it makes of all worthwhile 😎
2:56 - boss says "... no - that's ok - we always like it when our drivers deliberately destroy the engine in one of our vans!...." seriously, what a complete dork...
I love how so many people think smacking the water at full speed will somehow defy physics

You can't be too fast or too slow. But the best solution is to find another way round the ford, it only takes a few miles more!
With a detour you also avoid expensive engine damage and keep your vehicle running 👍
Do you think all the boxes and parcels were floating in the back of the DPD van 😂
Yep, lots of water damaged goods in that van. So on top of buggering the van there’s gonna be a lot of angry customers! Why take the risk, just accept that taking the long way round is gonna take an extra half an hour!
as soon as there's constant water pressure on the outside most car seals allow water to pass quickly.

It's possible that the engines air intake is down low like under the bumper bar! Result the water goes straight into the motor and hydro-locks it!

Nice to see Jack Osborne taking an interest in local reporting .
Some people do not know a lot about driving rationale, it is sad destroying vehicles this way
I had absolutely no idea that there were still floodways in the UK.
Well there is....look!
2,000 of them or so.
They are called fords and quite common on country roads, where the building of a bridge is not economically justifiable.
Very nice what is that place across the street a restaurant or something nice work keep it up
None of the iveco trucks make it, I guess they put the intakes super low, unlike the Really high intakes on the cab
Remind me not to buy a car from that area
One of the mechanic shops out there should you tube all the fixes that he's does from this place

Skilled drivers don't rush.
Time will tell on how electric powered vehicles manage this ford.
until you are not trying to stay for more than a minute or two - not a big deal.
Just let it dry in your garage and you are good to go.
In one of the videos a Tesla is the only vehicle that survived.
The person in the dark silver vauxhall van is thick as two short planks!!! Were and how did you get a driving license 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Like a Faith No More, midlife crisis from Angel Dust album
Imagine how many of these cars don’t fail immediately but drive for maybe weeks or months with water damage and then blow up.
That rarely happens. The reason for fails in the video is that water cannot be compressed. When it gets into the engine it simply blows something.
@ Yes, but corrosion of electrical connexions can take a long time to show symptoms.
their faces at the realisation they blew thousands of pounds in an instant
