How to save yourself when your vehicle falls into water

People who have cars know that although cars are very convenient for transportation, they are always worried about their own insecurity. Driving is also a very dangerous thing. If you are not careful, you may put yourself in danger. If you are not careful when driving, or you are absent-minded, the car will easily drive into the water and the vehicle will dive. So how can you save yourself in this situation?

1. If your vehicle unfortunately falls into the water, unfasten your seat belt. If it cannot be untied, find a sharp object to cut it open.

2. If the resistance outside the car is not great, try to open the door. If it can be opened, escape immediately. Because the vehicle will float on the water for a while when it falls into the water, you must act quickly.

3. The car door may not be able to be opened due to the different pressures inside and outside the cockpit. Please do not panic and break the glass first. If the glass is not broken, please calm down and let the water flow into the car. When the water is about to flood your head, take a deep breath and dive to open the door. At this time, the pressure inside and outside the cockpit is almost balanced and the car door can be opened to escape.

4. If the vehicle's windows are open when it first sinks, there is no such thing as the air pressure being less than the water pressure and the windows being unable to be opened. In this case, open the windows immediately to save yourself.

5. As most electric windows cannot be opened due to short circuit, you need to use a safety hammer to break the glass before escaping (a safety hammer should be carried in the car in case of emergency). But now many cars are equipped with explosion-proof film. This film was originally designed to prevent the glass from shattering and the glass fragments will stick to the explosion-proof film. Therefore, although explosion-proof film is beneficial, it is undoubtedly an obstacle to escaping from the car. When the trapped people in the car smash the glass, they can continue to hit it until the explosion-proof film is broken through, and then the entire glass can be easily smashed.

If the car is submerged, then these are all ways of self-rescue. When a car is accidentally immersed in water, it is very easy to suffocate. If you can swim, you can pry open the glass and swim out. If you can't swim, then these are all ways of self-rescue. The car will not be immersed in water immediately. At this time, you must remain calm so that you can be rescued.
