Saw this on TV a few days ago and thought I'd post a link. Hard to say who was at fault, sounds like they're not sure if it was marked or not, but the machine, a 320CLU, was running a breaker. The video footage was wild, water 2-3 feet deep running down the streets and cars just deciding to drive through it, people in Seattle are completely stupid. Why you wouldn't just turn around and head the other direction I will never know. First link tells the story essentially and the second explains the ramifications.
