Too Late Of A Warning
Driving after a storm or during a storm is an awful idea. Even just 3 inches of water is sufficient to flood a vehicle, especially a compact one, and cause it to drift away. On the off chance that someone is attempting to drive on flooded streets, one can never know where the potholes or open manholes are and might easily get stuck in them, as this unfortunate woman did.
Floods can be dangerous and unpredictable. There is nothing to stop a car from being swept away by the strong currents, and the water can even enter the engine and cause it to stop working.
