Hullo Rod
Assuming that they were travelling at night, in my experience it is often very difficult to see
water on a road at night as the beam from the headlights reflects straight on and not back to the vehicle and you can be in the
water before you realise it, even when travelling relatively slowly, eg 60 kph.
That said, in these circumstances, given the forecast and warnings, and with the rain pelting down, prudence would be in order
Cheers
