The road was unstriped and curved around the lake. Driving one direction, the road goes left but you go straight to the boat ramp. Dark road, dark night and they drove right into the lake. Panick set in and they never even got the doors open.
I want to die in my sleep like grandpa, not like the screaming people in his car as it went over the cliff!!
Once the car is in the water opening the doors requires enormous effort.You are fighting tons of water pressing on the outside of the door. Rolling down the window or breaking it may be easier.
Accidentally driving into deep water is a nightmare scenario one is unlikely to survive.
