Storm Babet - RAC advice to drivers
Following the arrival of Storm Babet, RAC Breakdown spokesman Rod Dennis said:
"The exceptional amount of rain being brought in by Storm Babet means conditions on the roads are proving extremely difficult. We urge drivers to heed the warnings, especially where flooding has already happened or is likely over the next few days. Drivers should never attempt to drive through floodwater as the risks are just too great.
"The disruption to rail services also means more people will take to their cars, making spray and surface water on the roads even more of a problem. It's vital anyone who absolutely has to travel prepares themselves for a longer journey, or considers waiting until the storm has passed before making it."
