Be careful doing that. I know I sound like a nervous Nellie, but it happens all the time... cars die in that and get swept away.
Guy I work with had one die in a WIDE river like that @ flood. He had to get rescued in a boat! HA!!

Gonna have to change your handle to

I have come out of such water and discovered I had no brakes to speak of.
I went 8 hours riding today, and while there was some crud in the corners and across some roads, it was nothing like I was expecting.

You might want to change the oil in the rear end, it likely has water in it now.

However beautiful the strategy, you should occasionally look at the results.

I think I would have called in to work before crossing that and messing up my car like that...hope that one day of work will pay for your parts and labor to fix....
