[Music] TI down in the back we are live with the Cena South Lake Drive uh together with officer David Silverstein Silverstein that is um on the scene there is a car that uh got stuck in a tremendous I don't think you can even call it a puddle Lev quot more like an extension of the lake um very difficult to actually see the depth of such type of um water runoff which is why one has to be quite careful when driving especially after such a storm as we experienced last night uh right here we see that a ayor member together with the officer are working to pull the car out of the aforementioned extended Lake put it in neutral um as the officer said they're putting the car in neutral again we cannot um emphasize enough and this is not coming just from the scoop but coming from the Lake Police Department um that just because you see a a puddle does not mean that all it is is a puddle uh one has to exercise caution when driving through these areas because um as you can see one can end up being stranded and and doing a significant amount of damage to their vehicle uh we're hoping that this car will be salvaged at some point but for the moment as you can see also one other thing the officer mentioned to us is that one of the things you don't notice from the puddle again from the uh lake that is uh the newly formed lake is that there are logs that are inside the water here so um that can do extensive harm to your car as well you're on there pretty TP now okay is you're neutral right yeah [Music] that lock hold [Music] up he's just going to bring you back a little further but once again you have to remember that just because some cars are able to be moved out of these situations that not necessarily mean that it can happen in all cases uh once once again we cannot emphasize enough the importance of not driving through such areas you're now looking at an area on South Lake Drive this must be about 50 yards of this type of situation it is very imperative that no one drive through this no time to experiment with your new 4x4
