A TRACTOR driver has left residents stunned after passing through flooded streets in Tenbury, sending water spraying into nearby homes and businesses.

The incident happened in Teme Street after heavy rain from Storm Bert caused river levels to rise. 

The town was heavily flooded as Kyre Brook overflowed and a wall collapsed sending a wave of water through the streets. 

Teme Street was submerged in murky water today (November 24) and a tractor driver was caught on film passing through, creating a wave and worsening the situation for businesses and residents. 

The viral video shows the tractor driving through the street causing tidal waves of water to go above shop windows.

The driver also appears to hit something and the tractor jolts to the shock of onlookers. 

Chloe Mcintosh took to Facebook and said: "Thank you to the person who drove through Tenbury in a tractor at one million miles per hour. 

"Everyone's life's work, gone."

Emma Jayne Dyke said: "So sorry for everyone.

"Absolutely awful.

Another user said: "As for (the) tractor driver, nobody has a clue why he's driving through it.

"Don't judge before you know.

"It may be his only way to get to an emergency.

"Good luck to everyone."

Dj O'Toole commented: "Awful scenes made much worse by this one tractor driver which does not represent so many amazing farmers out there working so hard and doing amazing things for communities.

"This chap should have the full book thrown at him for this and people who have been affected should definitely make claims against him for extra damages that could have been easily avoided had he not been so idiotic.

"He should be banned from driving for this extreme version of driving without due care and attention."
