Firefighters from Thame and Wheatley fire stations managed to get the occupants out of the water by The Old Fisherman pub in Shabbington and on to dry land.

The service urges people to be mindful that water can be deeper than it appears.

Lee-Ann Gregory, an occupant who was in one of the cars said on the Thame Fire Station Facebook page: "Thank you so much for coming to rescue me, I can't believe I did something so stupid."
