I just drove home through that. The roof at work started leaking just before I left. I was 7PM and it was as dark as if it was midnight.
I was going around 60 km/h on an industrial road and every time I hit a puddle my van instantly dropped down to 10 km/h because the puddles were so deep. I went through 5 intersections with flashing reds or no lights at all. Saw some idiot almost t-bone another car because he didn't couldn't understand how to handle an intersection with no lights. I never once got above the speed limit, and that's saying a lot for someone who's usually 10-20 over. It was actually kinda fun, though scary too.

But I don't want a small one because they're all like supermarket own-brand cola: weedy imitations of the real thing - Jeremy Clarkson
