In the Jodhpur flood, a Maruti Celerio is seen being washed away in front of helpless people.

We can only advise our readers to not take your personal vehicles in such weather conditions. The monsoons clog up a lot of our roads every year. You must not risk your personal safety or the safety of your car. Oftentimes, the thick water prevents the drivers to see what lies on the road and people end up getting stuck in the potholes. You must avoid taking out your personal vehicles or going to places where the water has accumulated.
