@thomasfuchs Thank you for this reminder.

My spouse drove his car about a block's length down a street which was under water. He didn't notice exactly how deep it was as the street had no curbs against which he could gauge water depth. Ruined the engine of his year-old Chrysler 300, had to replace it.

Like you said, don't do it. Even with curbed streets don't do it because it's hard to say when water will suddenly swamp a street during/after a storm event.
