How to Drive Safely Through Flooded Roads

1. How to Drive Safely Through Flooded Roads Flooding can happen anytime, all thanks to heavy down pour, blocked drains, tides, burst water mains and river banks. Not all big SUV's and hatchbacks can effortlessly pass through a water-clogged road. For this reason alone, is it imperative that you take special care and give your undeterred attention while driving on such flooded roads to avoid stalling your vehicle and getting stuck in the middle of the road? Some precautions and a little preparation can help you get out of a tricky road situation without as much putting a scratch on your vehicle. What are those? Bp Auto Spares India, leading supplier of Suzuki Alto Spare Parts is here with some of the best road practices when you have to drive through water. The rule of thumb of driving through water clogged roads is "Don't". Yes, you are reading that right. Instead of taking the water flooded route its better to find another safer one. That's the only sure short way to avoid getting stranded.

2. When approaching water clogged or flooded roads you are unsure of the depth of the water and the condition under which the road might be, which may be ditch-filled or washed away. So instead of subjecting your vehicle and yourself to such path, it is more convenient to find some other route devoid of any water mess. Just 6 inches of standing water and sometimes less, is enough to stall your car engine mid way. In case of water ingestion, your engine can suffer serious and expensive damage and you'll be doomed. In approximately 1 foot of water, any normal car will begin to float and with the loss of traction, you'll eventually lose the control of the steering too. In case you are trying to pass through moving water, your vehicle could literally float away. In approximately 2 feet of water, heavy pickup trucks and SUVs are in danger of floating away. Last but definitely not least advice we can impart is to never drive into waters that are dangerously deep to see the painted markings on the road.
