How to escape safely from a car sinking in water. First, roll down your car window.
If you can't roll down your car window, break window glass safely with a tool such as the Lifehammer, or the T3 Tactical Triage and Auto safety tool to avoid cutting or injuring your body.
DO NOT OPEN CAR DOOR IF YOUR CAR IS UNDERWATER IN A FLOOD. If you open the car door while your car is underwater, the door won't open, because the force of the flood water moving will push against the car door, making it extremely hard to open your car door.
Escape from your car by swimming out your car window. Swim up. If you don't know which way is up, follow the way bubbles are travelling.
