Was just watching that myself.
Imagine coming out the shop to find your car washed 5 miles down the road!
Unbelievable.
Also quite deceiving how strong the rushing water can be, those cars just looked like toy cars!

feel sorry for the owners and all those affected by the floods.
i thought the bloke letting air out of his tyres was an idiot, instead of risking his life letting air out why didnt he just get in and drive off?!?!?
