Tropical Storm Eta made landfall in South Florida on Sunday and the storm’s rainbands brought high winds and heavy rains to Miami-Dade and Broward county which resulted in certain areas getting severely flooded.

Most people in the region were advised to stay home due to the fact that flooded waters were high enough to cause trouble for cars.
YIKES! Several cars were left stranded and submerged after heavy rain flooded the parking lot at Sawgrass Mills mall.

During a live newscast in Broward, one man was seen casually seen driving his Lamborghini around stalled cars which left viewers with several questions.

The Lambo apparently didn't care the other cars stalled for going through the flood. Awesome car, but no brain. @cleveland19news https://t.co/7IFulylwhF

Hopefully, that guy has some good insurance because I’m not sure that car was equipped to drive through those waters.
