We are horrified!
Day after day, week after week, we read the worst.
A young woman of 35 years , Jennifer Wolfe drown after falling into a pond in the United States after being forced off the road by a reckless driver . She called her husband, begging him to find her, because she feared that no one had seen her accident .
Jennifer seemed panicked and which of us would not be.
The door and windows seemed to refuse to open.
Mrs. Wolfe had no rescue tool, and could not free herself from her vehicle. Her husband, James Wolfe, heard the last cries of his wife, the sounds of water and nothing more.
How nowadays, can we remain indifferent, and not react to the drama of Jennifer, a mother of two?
We beg people to become aware that an accident of this type can happen. And when your vehicle is submerged in water not to open the door and the windows of your car, grab a rescue tool to keep your life before it is too late!

Today, we were in tears at the words of the journalist, Briona Arradondo Channel 9 News.
A grieving family, two children drowned in this accident in Tennessee.
Family members, their friends and all of Bledsoe County are in tears after losing two children in the car accident submerged in a pond on Mount Rigsby Monday night.
The car slid off the narrow road and ended its path in a pond, parents rushed to help the children.
Parents had removed a two year old and a one year old without risk, but soon the car to started sinking and it flooded with cold water. Bledsoe County EMS and many other rescuers arrived at the scene at 8:45pm .
The boy, six weeks old, Emoch Einwechter and the little girl of three years, Susan Einwechter, were under water for about 30 minutes and drowned, according to the Tennessee Highway Patrol .

We responded to the article published by news- presse.com : http://www.news-press.com/article/20140310/NEWS0101/140310001/Firefighters-rescue-driver-from-atop-submerged-vehicle?nclick_check=1
“Hello,
We recently saw the article on your website about the man being rescued while on top of his submerged vehicle. We are so happy he was able to escape. However, we noticed that at the bottom of the article was instructions on how to escape a vehicle if submerged underwater. The tip given was if you are unable to open the windows in time, to let the vehicle fill with water and then attempt to open the door. We wanted to share another practice that is both safer and more efficient for yourselves and your readers. Please see the link attached as it may help to save a life. Thank you so much for your time. Please call or email us with any questions you may have, we would be happy to help. Have a safe day!
