abstract="Each year, approximately 1,500 incidents and 600 deaths occur resulting from vehicles that have gone off the road and plummeted into water (Figure 1). The public needs to plan for these types of emergencies by rehearsing the steps necessary for a successful self-rescue from a vehicle in the water and having rescue/escape tools readily available for use during this type of emergency situation. In addition, first-responder agencies need to provide the training necessary to prepare their personnel to respond to these types of incidents and should provide the personal protective equipment and rescue tools necessary for a safe and effective response to vehicles in the water.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
