Dynamics, buoyancy , weight- sounds like an @otto challenge- a site says the vehicle weighed approximately 3,800 pounds. @otto this sounds like your ball court.
…Your best chance of survival in a drowning car is to get out before it is completely submerged in water. This means, you have maybe a minute at the most to safely evacuate the vehicle. Here is how:
Take seat belt off and put windows down within seconds of hitting the water
.. Most cars electric systems will work for a few minutes after being completely submerged in water, however waiting to roll down the windows is dangerous.
Depending on the weight of a vehicle, a vehicle will float between 30 and 130 seconds before sinking.
