What should be noted when driving through flooded sections?

[OJace]

When driving through flooded sections, the following precautions should be taken: 1. Observe the water depth: When the water depth is below half of the wheel, pass through at low gear and high RPM. If the water surface approaches half of the car's tire height, driving is not recommended. If the wading depth exceeds the engine hood, immediately turn off the engine, get out of the car, and push it to the side of the road. 2. Solutions for wading: When multiple vehicles are wading, do not enter the water simultaneously. Wait for the preceding vehicle to reach the opposite bank before the following vehicle enters the water to prevent the preceding vehicle from stopping due to malfunction, forcing the following vehicle to stop in the water. Avoid driving at high speed; instead, pass slowly at high RPM and low gear. Even in shallow water sections, it is best not to drive too fast, as water splashing into the engine compartment can damage the electrical circuits. If the engine stalls, do not attempt to restart it.
