Monsoons have caused water accumulation in many parts of the country and videos of vehicles struggling through such difficult conditions are surfacing online.
An Ola electric scooter was seen making its way through the water which flooded the streets of Surat. We know that monsoon season causes havoc in many parts of the country each year. Due to a lack of proper drainage systems in certain parts of Indian cities, water often accumulates after a spell of heavy rainfall. In fact, water causes many issues, especially for the vehicle movement. If rainfall persists, it starts affecting the livelihood of people as the ground floors of buildings are often inundated with water. For now, let us take a look at the details of this latest case.
Ola Electric Scooter Wade Thru Water
This post emerges from suratupdatesofficial on Instagram. It captures an Ola electric scooter rider making his way through knee-deep water. As per the information in the video, this case emerges from Varachha in Surat. The large display of the electric scooter seems to be working fine despite almost half the scooter being immersed in water. Still, the rider didn’t get off the scooter and kept driving it with confidence. What is quite interesting to see is a Hero Splendor owner dragging his motorcycle. Perhaps, the bike might have encountered ignition issues.
In any case, it is quite impressive to see the electric scooter performing so well in such extreme weather conditions. I don’t encourage anyone to try this unless extremely urgent. It is critical to recognize that the electronic components of automobiles can malfunction even though they are tested for such conditions. Hence, it is a great idea to not test the extreme boundaries of your cars and bikes. If you get stuck in such environments, things could turn ugly as you could end up being stranded for a long time.
Our View
I have reported innumerable cases of people getting stuck with their vehicles in monsoon waters and floods. I suggest, until there is no emergency, you must ensure that you don’t travel during the rain. You never know when things could take a wrong turn and you could get stuck in difficult situations which could lead to the endangerment to your life or risk to the health of your vehicle. Make sure to stay safe and not use personal transportation if you live in an area which is prone to water accumulation. Our safety lies in our own hands.
