"Early June 2007, there was a severe weather event on the NSW central coast. I was had to transit this road. The water depth markers indicated 0.6M - this is no problem in my car - so I continued cautiously. It turns out the water was actually more like 1.2M deep & this is a problem for my car - it comes up to the windscreen! *** CAUTION *** Do not try this unless you are experienced & 100% sure of your vehicles capabilites - otherwise, you may get stuck, your vehicle may get extensively damaged - or worse, you may die."



Thanks for the embeding info
