Video: Offbeat - Uber drives through flooded tunnel
Kaysar Ahmed said he had made his way into the Blackwall Tunnel and had no choice but to carry on through as there was no way out.
The nail-biting video shows motorists creeping along the tunnel in east London as water laps at the sides of cars.
Kaysar said on Twitter: “Blackwall tunnel flooded avoid. “It happened at around 3am this morning. “I entered tunnel and their was no turning back.”
Meanwhile, yet another car was left stranded under a railway bridge in Wallington, south east London.
