Gulp, I know what you mean. I was driving through the countryside at speeds between 100mph and 120mph and there was a sign up saying surface flooding. I could see a few puddles on the side of the road and thought "flooding duh" and carried on. Argh I came over a slight rise and saw about 80 yards of water on the road. Luckily I had enough sense not to slam on the brakes but kept going. The 911 behaved really well and just kept going in a straight line as you can imagine, but it was a bit scarry.
