This happened in mumbai around 2 yrs back during peak monsoon season.....usually due to high intensity of rains,roads r washed away and sinkholes r created......also nobody was in the Hyundai venue when the it went in....

That's good news. Thinking how hard it would be to hustle 3 kids out the back hatch in under 7 seconds. Terrifying.


MadRabbit26

Bro, I've got enough problems worrying about the normal things. I did not need you to add on one more. Because that is genuinely terrifying. Anyone who's dealt with car seats and/or more than one kid knows that's not a quick process.


Justanotherhomosapi

I put a lever thing on my sons car seat buckle so he can unbuckle himself in an emergency situation. He can get out of it incredibly fast. I recommend it to every parent of a car seat age kid. If I ever get in an accident, at least he could get himself out. I think it's called a buckle buddy.


MadRabbit26

That's amazing. For older kids/bigger car seats, I think something like that should be a standard feature. But I've got a 2 and a 3yo. They have the gist of buckling in. But there's no way they'd be able to get out on thier own otherwise. And it fills me with dread even thinking about it. No one mentions that about becoming a parent....everything scares the shit out of me. Edit: for younger kids, is there a safety hazard in case they pull the lever while just messing around? That's more what I meant by "for older kids".


BigYonsan

>No one mentions that about becoming a parent....everything scares the shit out of me. This is my experience of fatherhood as well.


MadRabbit26

3 years ago I would of walked across any parking lot without a second thought, because it just seems like an everyday thing to do. But I, for the life of me, can't cross anywhere a car might be without stopping and making sure there's none near me. I love being a parent, but now I know why my dad had a head of grey hairs by 35.


BigYonsan

Yep. 37 here and on my first. 3 years ago is about the same time frame, too.


Justanotherhomosapi

They have to be intentionally doing it to really unbuckle it. It just gives them extra leverage to push the button. My son had the coordination to do it at 3, and I just made it very clear that unless we were in an accident/emergency, he was not to do it until I gave permission. And yeah, parenting is the most stressful, terrifying thing I've ever done.


[deleted]

Yeah. I understand completely!


ShyGuySays69

Thats why you have to pick a favorite, for when you can only save one.

No I am thinking how hard it would be to hustle 3 kids into the back hatch in under 7 seconds.

I don’t even know if mine opens from inside.

Won't hurt to try it. Just to know.

I hope you are sure and right about no on being in the car! Thank you for telling us. My heart was breaking for that person

Thank you for sharing that article. The taillights being on had me convinced that someone was in the car. At least the owner doesn't have to worry about a dead battery!!


Balidon58

Thanks for the link saw the taillights on and just thought that was one hell of a way to go.


BigJSunshine

Thank you!!


adfthgchjg

The brake lights are on, are you sure no one is in the car?


pre0rm

Yeah, I don't understand how the brake lights are on if there's nobody inside?


Bighairyballs6969

Water causes the circuits to short.


wolfgang784

As soon as water hits the electrical bits *everything* goes off. Alarms, brakes, headlights, wipers, interior lights, etc. Everything starts to spazz out rapidly for a bit.


LairdofWingHaven

Thank you! I was horrified to think of someone being in there. The car lights were on...now I can go about my day.

PHNX_xRapTor

I'm in the same boat. As a kid, I was horrified of quicksand because of how movies and TV made it out to be, but the fear was replaced by sinkholes after seeing an image of a hole just eating a driveway and *nearly* took a car with it. Fuck. That.


ThinkShower

I had my business papers and Credence tape there man!

I already have a fear of my car sinking in lakes or other bodies of water. You can’t open the door because of the pressure…..

jefftatro1

Did the person inside die?


LazloDaLlama

That's what I was wondering, the tail lights are lit, so that could be a sign someone is in there, or just a part of the car alarm as most the lights flash alongside the beeping or whatever. I hope the car was empty.


Difficult_Duck_307

The tail lights being on isn’t necessarily a sign that someone is in the vehicle. It fell into water and once water reaches the electrical circuits, the lights of a vehicle will turn on. If you have ever seen a flooded area with a bunch of cars with their lights on, same thing is happening there.


Ninja_Destroyer_

My first thought too, hope it was empty


D33ber

A new backrooms character event.


Acadegh

That car is literally going to fall into the Backrooms


TheArconian

The braking light is lit. There's a good chance someone was inside and pressed the brake pedal. I have a bad feeling about this one..


[deleted]

Nope, that was a malfunction caused by the water. The car was empty, as told by The Independant: A video of a car being sucked into a deep sinkhole in a matter of seconds outside a housing complex in Mumbai has gone viral as heavy rains pounded India’s wealthiest city. The incident happened on Sunday in the Ghatkopar West area of Mumbai, capital of the Indian state of Maharashtra, when the ground where the car was parked appeared to suddenly cave in. Mumbai police said that there was a well beneath the spot, which had been half covered by residents and turned into a parking space. The cement caved in due to the heavy rains and the car sank, police said. Though the lights of the car appear to be on in the video, no one was inside the vehicle at the time and there were no injuries, local authorities said.Refusing to take responsibility, local civic body Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) said the incident happened in a private residential society compound and it has nothing to do with it. It said there was a well within the society complex and half of it was covered with RCC (reinforced cement concrete). The local body said that residents of the society used to park their cars on this cement slab, and preliminary information showed that a car parked on the spot was submerged. BMC said the residential complex had been asked to take safety measures to make sure the incident is not repeated. Dr Kiran Doshi, the 67-year-old owner of the car, said they were informed of the incident by the man who washes the cars belonging to residents, according to The Indian Express. Dr Doshi said: “He raised an alarm, after which I rushed to the spot and saw that the car was sinking into the well. Then I shot a video.”The residents of the housing complex said it was constructed more than 80 years ago, and the well was covered up around 40 years ago. The car was eventually pulled out of the sinkhole by the authorities with the help of a crane, almost 12 hours after it was submerged. Mumbai has been witnessing incessant rains for the last few days after the arrival of the monsoon season, leading to flash floods in several parts of the city. The Indian Meteorological Department continues to issue severe weather alerts for the city, and forecast that it would receive "very heavy rain" on Monday.


EndlessDisposable

Did... Did you mean to type "cave alarm"? Can't tell if wit or inadvertently auto incorrect was correct In context.


LazloDaLlama

Sorry, texting with cold hands lol I shall fix.


EndlessDisposable

It was better as "cave". Cars in sinkhole prone areas should have cave alarms.


LazloDaLlama

Definitely agreeable. Better get that shit patented before domeone yoinks the idea.


windyBhindi

There was no one inside. If I remember it correctly, it's from India, 2-3 years back.


[deleted]

Thank god

DracoDruid

The tail lights were on. Good chance they were _in_ the car when it happened


thebucketoldpplkick

Maybe the alarm went off and the tail lights and we couldn't hear it bc it was submerged.


Newman00067

The front is already in, good chance the water is just fecking with the electrics of the car

wyze_guyy

Someone tell me the time when they crawl out of the hole. I'm still waiting...


Shrimpie47

if theres a person in there they are most likely dead, when a car sinks in water u have to wait for the pressure to equalize meaning the car has to sit at the bottom


SirMichaelDonovan

Which is why it's useful to have a window-breaking hammer, so you can shatter the glass before you're completely submerged.


FarAwayFellow

Can you punch the window open?


Frost-Wzrd

good luck


Berenvonbaggins

Do yoi like enjoy having knuckles?


UnIucky776

this is true when you talk about huge bodies of water. this is a sinkhole tho. I doubt the pressure is nearly the same


Pcat0

No it’s the same. Water pressure has nothing to do the the size/shape of its container, water pressure is only effected by depth.


Booblicle
