Can the car still be driven if half of the tire is submerged in water?

[DelAnderson]

The car should not be driven if half of the tire is submerged in water, and the car door should not be opened immediately to exit the vehicle, as this could allow water to enter the car's interior, leading to corrosion of internal wiring. The correct approach is to open the window and climb out through it, then seek help to push the car out of the water. Precautions for driving on waterlogged roads: 1. Drive slowly in a low gear; although the water surface appears flat, the underwater environment is unknown, and waves created while driving can splash into the air intake, damaging the car. 2. If the engine stalls while driving through water, do not attempt to restart it, as water may flow back from the exhaust pipe into the engine, causing stalling or even engine damage. In such cases, call for a tow truck. 3. Never let off the accelerator, as doing so can create a strong suction in the exhaust system, drawing water back into the engine.
