Despite the barriers signaling the prohibition of access, a motorist ignored this instruction and found himself stuck in 1.60 meters of water. When help arrived, he had managed to get out of his vehicle and was standing on the roof of it. The intervention lasted 1 hour 15 minutes, a tow truck was needed to extract the vehicle.
A similar incident had already occurred on October 8, when a motorist ventured on the same path and was trapped in 90 centimeters of water.
As a reminder, there is always water under the two bridges and the level rises very quickly in the event of heavy rain, as was the case all day Tuesday.
