Can the car be turned off after driving through water without stalling?

If the car did not stall while driving through water, it can be turned off after coming out of the water. Here are some precautions for driving through water: 1. Drive in a low gear: Use a low gear (for automatic transmission vehicles, shift into hill-climbing mode) and drive slowly and steadily through the waterlogged area while maintaining control of the steering. Be aware of any potholes or hidden obstacles beneath the water. 2. Do not restart the engine if it stalls: If the vehicle stalls in a waterlogged area, do not attempt to restart the engine. Stalling indicates that water has entered the cylinders. Restarting the engine can cause severe damage due to the incompressibility of water, potentially bending or breaking the piston connecting rod components, and in extreme cases, leading to complete engine failure.
