Yup, was caught up on it. Burst water main on the Dubai to Abu Dhabi side of the road, the inside lanes for a couple of miles and at its deepest point even came across all lanes.
Police, ever helpful, decided to position themselves in the left carriageway at the deepest point, meaning all the cars who'd come to the left had to go right again to get past them. Quite why there was no police before the water directing people left was beyond me.
