That's some seriously impressive waterproofing on the electrics! A report on the website for the local paper stated that it was a 911, and has a few shots of it being recovered.

What I don't get is, when did the driver stop the car and realise maybe the water was too deep to drive through? When the water line was at the windows?...? :lol: doh.

Maybe they aquaplaned to the middle of the flood, and then starting sinking, cartoon style.
