As the nation mops up from the "atmospheric river" that slammed us with heavy rain, video has emerged of one bus driver's dedication to ensure passengers were not held up by the extreme weather.
The video, shared to TikTok, showed the 68 bus from Mt Roskill to Onehunga reaching what
appeared to be an impassable stretch of floodwater on Beachcroft Ave.
As other vehicles hold back, the bus plunges into the flood, with water soon reaching the top of the wheels.
"I was in a 4wd and decided not to enter the lake," wrote the person who shared the video.
"Would love to see what the passengers were thinking," they added.
