WET ROADS
Not all serious driving problems are caused by accidents. One lady will never forget the time she thought that
she wasn't going to survive.
She was in her car late at night, stuck in a traffic jam when suddenly the radio announced that the jam had
been caused by an accident further along the road. Outside the rain was as heavy as she'd ever seen it. It was a
terrible storm with thunder and lightning.
After a while the water began to rise; first just a few centimetres and then quickly up to the car door. The
woman thought it wouldn't keep rising, but if she opened the car door the water might start to come in. so, she
sat in the traffic jam and waited. There was still no movement. The water continued to rise and there was
nothing she could do.
She put the window down and looked out, immediately feeling scared. The water was already half a metre
deep. She wouldn't be able to open the door now even if she had wanted to do. Gradually, the water reached
the open window. She pressed the button to put it up.
Nothing worked! The water was starting to flow into the car! The terrified lady decided there was only one
thing to do − get out!
She climbed onto the roof of the car, thinking ´What will happen if nobody comes to rescue me? It wouldn't
have been such a problem if I'd learnt to swim when I was young! ´
Then suddenly the rain stopped. Twenty minutes later the water level started to go down. ´We're going to be
all right! ´ somebody shouted from another car. Nobody was hurt although many cars were damaged. It was
an experience the woman would never forget.
