No one wants to be stuck in a speeding car to flow...
But if it ever happens to you, you'll be glad you know how to escape.
Yes, let's not forget that forewarned is forearmed!
First remember to bring a security key ring like this one to cut the belt and break the glass easily.
Then follow this guide that tells you how to get out of the car, you and your family, safely . Watch:
1. Keep calm. On average, you will have between 30 and 120 seconds during which the car will float before sinking. It's more than enough to escape if you act quickly.
2. Do not open the door. It is very difficult to escape this way even if there is only 30 cm of water. Worse, the car then risks sinking almost immediately, making it impossible for passengers to escape.
3. Remember these four words:"Belts. Children. Windows. Get out." First, unhook your seat belt. If the belt is stuck, cut it with this special tool in the form of a key ring.
4. Then make sure that children and passengers have successfully removed their belts. Help them if they don't and guide them out their window or, failing that, carry them to the front of the car.
5. Escape through the window. First try to roll down the window. If that doesn't work, use a glass breaker like this to break it safely. Know that it is almost impossible to break it using only your arms or legs.
6. Extricate yourself through the window and swim to a safe area. All of this can be done in less than 30 seconds if you stay calm and have rehearsed the scenario several times in your head before it happened.
