A POLICE car has been spotted soaking two cyclists and people are asking if they should be fined.
The video was uploaded to TikTok by user @nickdaw1 and shows a flooded London street.
It’s shot using a smartphone from high up above the flooded road and starts by showing cars driving through the deep water.
The caption on the video reads; ‘wait till the end,’ and ‘got them both.’
A few seconds in, a siren can be heard approaching the section of the road in shot and a police car comes into view.
At the same time, a couple of cyclists can be made out coming along the drenched road in the same direction.
As the police car roars past it hits a stretch of water and gives both cyclists a proper soaking.
The video ends with the police car speeding off up the road and you can hear shouting in the background – perhaps from the cyclists.
But people in the comments were quick to point out that the police driver could be fined for the act.
Under section three of the Road Traffic Act 1988, it is an offence to drive “without reasonable consideration for other persons.”
According to the Crown Prosecution Service, this includes “driving through a puddle causing pedestrians to be splashed.”

Typically, this will land you with a £100 fixed penalty notice and three points on your licence if you’re caught by the police.
But if you’re considered to be driving your motor in a manner that “amounts to a clear act of incompetence, selfishness, impatience or aggressiveness” then you can get a maximum level five fine, which is currently set at £5,000.
