You’d think that a car transporter submerged in water up to the first floor would be a clear sign for other drivers to back away from entering a flooded road.

Well, apparently not, as our man of the day thought his rugged, high-riding SUV (perhaps our Russian friends can name the model) was more than capable of driving swimming through the murky waters.

He succeeded in doing so for about 30 seconds until the 4×4 was fully waterlogged and he had to (literally) climb out of the door.
