Driving into water - Are you covered by insurance for damage. Rufford
Hi, I've been watching the drivers trying to get through the Ford at Rufford. Looks a popular spectator sport.

For those that get stuck is the repair costly and does insurance cover the repair?
Plenty of missing number plates.
Finally has anyone seen the water at Rufford.
Cheers

Personally I think an insurance company would laugh at anyone trying to claim for this.
Wonder how many cars actually get stuck!! Might be a lucrative place to park something that can tow them out!
2023 £1 a day £54.26/365
The insurer initially tried to dismiss the claim on the grounds that it was not an accident but was an act of stupidity.
The individual simply responded that he was stupid, stupidity was not an assessment in the policy criteria, and it was not different him stupidly driving into deep water than stupidly driving into a brick wall.
The insurer paid out.
