SBM & BBM for focus.Add the *possibility* that Kiely was drunk and/or high and how much slower her reflexes would have been. And on a moonless night (moonset was ~12:21 am). It probably would take a sober person at least 30 seconds to grasp what had happened and by then the car would be in the process of overturning. In pitch black.
Speaking from personal experience I'm going to have to respectfully disagree. Some may only take 30 seconds, others take a lot longer which was my case.
Being in a rollover, where I had taken no drugs nor drank any alcohol, it took me a WHOLE LOT longer than 30 seconds to grasp what had happened. I was out of sorts and not thinking straight for I don't even know how long... at LEAST an hour. Everything past being picked up on the side of the road has been whipped from my memory. I wasn't thinking in the right mind with what I was dealing with for quite a while. That including how to exit the car, how I had came across a field (I hadn't, I was pointed in the opposite direction I came from), how important my ONE dancing shoe was to me, and then still in a daze after climbing up the embankment and waiting for I don't know how long before a car came by. I still was in shock without my wits when someone finally stopped.
So for some, 30 seconds isn't enough time. I honestly can't even imagine what stupid places my mind would have gone in if water was rushing into my car. I am a very logical person but all logic flew out the window that night.
