How to Safely Drive Through Water

[ElianaLee]

Before driving through water, observe the depth, direction, and speed of the water, and determine whether there are obstacles such as mud or quicksand underwater. Before entering the water, wrap the distributor and high-voltage wires with plastic or other materials. Pay attention to the route and speed of the vehicle ahead to assess the water depth and determine if your vehicle can pass. 1. Introduction: Refers to driving a vehicle in low-lying areas with accumulated water, passing through water. This usually occurs during rainy weather when poor drainage leads to water accumulation in low-lying road sections. 2. Reasons for Stalling: The high-voltage ignition system becomes damp or short-circuits due to water ingress, causing the engine to stall. This situation is relatively common—the water appears shallow, and the car seems capable of passing, but it stalls, usually due to splashing water.
