A spokesman for Devon County Council said: “Motorists are being advised not to drive through floodwater or fords with heightened flows.
“Driving at night in these conditions can be especially hazardous as some storm damage or floods are not readily visible.
“Drivers should also be aware that problems on minor roads may not be brought to the attention of the highways teams or the emergency services straight away, so travel carefully.”
