Open the car door now
In the event of a car falling into water, within a split second, you need to quickly open the car door or sunroof immediately, while the electrical system is still working.
Break the glass door
If water starts to enter the car, you need to break the window because the pressure inside and outside the car is equalized. The faster you break the window, the better your chances of survival. However, you should not break the windshield to escape because this type of glass is safe and very difficult to break.
In case the car sinks completely
If you cannot break the window to escape, you need to stay calm. Once the water has filled the entire car, the pressure inside and outside the car will be equalized. At that point, you can escape by opening the nearest car door latch.
