Trapped, in a car, underwater. What to do?

[finalfrogo]

In colossal boredom, I thought of this question today...

If you were trapped in a car underwater, what would you do?
​

 

[standing_alone]

Drown.

 

[Abram]

[SIZE=+0]freak out start crying then drown...[/SIZE]

 

[evearael]

Roll the windows down and swim to safety.

 

[standing_alone]

Roll the windows down and swim to safety.

Psh! Good luck with that!

 

[Sunstone]

Roll the windows down and swim to safety.

Although I might panic and think that was the only thing I could do, Evearael, I would hope that rational thinking would assert itself, and that I would seize the opportunity to evolve gills, adapt to life underwater, and be liberated from 2-dimensional terrestial existence.

Good luck with that. I'll inform the Darwin Awards...

If the water is getting in the car slowly enough that you have time to evolve, I'm thinking you'll be rescued there, Sunstone.
I was initially surprised that your answer didn't involve your mysterious lady of latex, however I soon realised that there's probably a label on her somewhere stating:

WARNING: Not a life saving device.

:clap :biglaugh:

Always when I have no frubals!

 

[Quiddity]

I'd call "On-Star"...

I wouldn't drive my bleedin' car into the water in the first place! :tuna:

Oooo! I'm with you! *concentrates on growing gills*

I'd bite my way out!

 

[Ody]

Break the windows then swim out...

 

[Booko]

Oooo! I'm with you! *concentrates on growing gills*

I'd bite my way out!

And here I thought you would hitch a ride on Etienne and swim out of there! :tuna:

 

[Feathers in Hair]

OOooo, that's a good idea! *reaches toward Etienne, who's trying to swim away* Come back here, you!

 

[Runt]

Die, probably.

I'd try to get my seatbelt off, wait for water to fill the car so the pressure is equal, THEN try to break the window. And hope I don't cut myself and bleed to death before I get free.

nobody said how deep the water is.

so i'll just assume it's a meter or two deep...i'm sure i wouldn't have any problems swimming to the surface.

how do i get out of the car? catapult chair. what, you don't have one?

I am going to assume that the water is only a couple of inches deep so this is what I would do. First I would roll down the window and light a cig. Next I would open up the car door to test the water to see if it is deep enough to enter my shoes. If it is not then I would slowly walk toward a small bump or maybe even a hill and then scream for help. If it is deep enough to get into my shoes then I would try to tiptoe through the tullips....I mean water and then repeat the last step of screaming for help. If the water is deeper than a couple of inches then I would probably just die screaming like a two year old school girl.

It's scary that no one appeared to know this.
