If in case you will be caught by the flash floods on the road, Indian Website autocarindia.com shared life-saving moves that you need to know. “If the flooding gets really bad and you get stuck inside the car with water up to the window outside, don’t panic. As difficult as it may sound, knock open the passenger door with both feet and get out of the car. If the force of the water outside is too strong to kick open the door, then you can use the detachable headrest in your car to smash the window open.”
