Yes I would add; drive so that you don't go in the drink. The odds of you being trapped in a submerged vehicle are low. Work on the odds you can affect like driving defensively, not driving into deep water etc. You can't really prepare for something like what happened in St Paul.


That is all true, still though I think I would be plagued with guilt the rest of my life if I didn't prepare and do what I could.

All good advice so far, thanks so much.
