Can Cars Drive in Water?

[McIvan]

Cars can drive in water, but it is best that the wading depth does not exceed half of the car's tire height. Otherwise, the engine may be submerged, causing the vehicle to stall. Here are some precautions for driving through water: 1. Assess the depth of the water: If the water does not exceed half the wheel height, it is safe to proceed; otherwise, it is not advisable to continue. 2. Use snow mode: After entering a waterlogged section, slow down and drive cautiously. For automatic transmission cars, try to use first gear, preferably engaging snow mode to prevent wheel slippage. 3. Continuous braking: After exiting the waterlogged section, brake several times in succession to evaporate the moisture from the brake discs to avoid affecting the car's braking performance.
