Is it okay if the car didn't stall when driving through a puddle?

If the car didn't stall when driving through a puddle, a comprehensive inspection should be conducted. Here are some precautions for driving through deep water: Avoid excessive speed: First, do not drive too fast. Use a low gear to enter the water smoothly and proceed slowly to prevent water splashes from wetting the engine's electrical components, which could cause the engine to stall. Maintain steady acceleration: Keep the accelerator pedal steady to ensure smooth and sufficient power for the car. Try to avoid shifting gears, stopping, or making sharp turns midway. While driving, look ahead and focus on distant fixed objects rather than the water surface to prevent visual disorientation and deviation from the intended water-crossing route.
