Explanation
If you accidentally drive your car into a body of water, you must try to get out immediately by unbuckling your seat belt and rolling down the window before the vehicle goes underwater. If you open the door, water will begin to pour in immediately. If you can't open a window, try to kick out a side window. Call 911 only once you are safely out of the vehicle.
