My mother in law is so paranoid about falling off a bridge into water and getting trapped in the car that she rolls down the windows in the car as she goes over the bridge, then rolls them back up :-)
In NC they have started using these 3-4 cable rails in the center median on interstates (where there was previously only grass to stop you from crossing over to the wrong side). The cables 'give' and stop the car very quickly.
Talking about getting out of a submerged car. One of my worst daydream nightmares is if that happens and my daughter is belted in her child seat. UGH.
Maglites and cops...my younger brother got tripped up once while running from the cops (acutally an ALE agent), by a Maglite thrown at him by an off-duty cop who happened to be strolling by and witnessed the whole thing. I bought him the booze too :-)
