After all the flack they have been getting via social media, the two policemen who flooded and fled their car on Monday may be feeling a little out of their depth.

They have been a source of entertainment for the best part of the week and we wonder if they will ever live this one down.

The two officers got their patrol car stuck in the flood waters of Bakery Lane on Monday and became an instant social media hit. 

The Bermuda Sun invited the public to submit their own captions via our Facebook page and we received a barrage of responses. Comparisons included everything from Key Stone Cops Bermy style to Rose from The Titanic.

We gathered the best of these for your amusement:

• Trudy Snaith: "Um, um — is dis de way to de Non Mariner's race?"

• Denise Cairney: "Wilson, I see the fugitive who's been on the run for two months. Call for back-up and throw me a water gun, STAT!"

• Kathryn Witte Thoma: “Not following that GPS again.”

• Leon Anthony Joaquin: “Police announce relocation of the marine division from Barrs Bay Park to Bakery Lane.”

• Wayne Correia: “I'm not going down for this alone you better get back here Now."

• Allan Hill: “I told you it wasn't the car pool lane!”

• Allan Doughty: “When facing a difficult situation, it is best to look at the car as being half full as opposed to half empty.” 

• Jo Mar: “Byron!, hurry up mon before de cameras get here!”

• Marc Boden: “Listen, Rose. You're gonna get out of here, you're gonna go on and you're gonna make lots of babies, and you're gonna watch them grow. You're gonna die an old... an old lady warm in her bed, not here, not this night. Not like this, do you understand me?” (Dialogue from The Titanic) 

• Thomas Christopher Famouss: “Dude left the door open.”

• Michael Davidson: “Demonstrating their high speed chase skills, Bermuda Police officers show how to correctly drift around a corner...”

• Michael Smith: “Hope the flak jacket doubles as a life jacket!”

• Cheryl Kerr: “Keystone Cops Bermy Style.” 

• Leon Anthony Joaquin: “Police conduct field testing on state-of-the-art Aquamobile.”

• Jen Caines: “Come Hell or high water”… “I’m going through…”

[email protected]“On page four, the police are talking about drug test for cops. They can start with these two RowBoat Cops.”

• Dennis Carter Snr:  “That is why we should only have Local Police, they would have never went down de road.”
