Where is it safe to park a car during heavy rainstorms?

It is best to park the vehicle in a high-altitude area or an indoor parking space with elevated terrain. Definition of vehicle wading: Vehicle wading, as the name suggests, refers to driving a vehicle in low-lying, waterlogged areas or passing through water. This usually occurs during rainy weather when inadequate drainage leads to water accumulation in low-lying road sections. Precautions for vehicle wading: Before wading, observe the road conditions carefully. While in the water, maintain steady power. After wading, inspect the electrical system. If the car stalls in water, the primary cause is usually water entering the exhaust pipe, though circuit damage may also occur in some cases. Once the car stalls, do not attempt to restart it, as this may cause water to enter the intake manifold and damage the valves, potentially leading to severe engine failure. Instead, the car should be towed immediately to a 4S shop for professional handling.
