During an unexpected storm, you observe a scenario that perfectly demonstrates the importance of weather preparedness. Trapped in gridlock, you notice a convertible vehicle nearby. The operator, surprised by the precipitation, desperately attempts to raise the canopy, but the system malfunctions, leaving the automobile vulnerable. What ensues is an amusing battle against the elements. Drenched, the operator attempts to protect herself using a publication. Several adjacent drivers extend umbrellas or plastic bags, while others observe with compassion or entertainment. Water accumulates on the upholstery and a tiny river develops on the floorboard. This scenario clearly emphasizes: always secure your vehicle windows when precipitation begins. As traffic eventually progresses, the saturated driver departs behind a series of puddles, providing a teaching moment for everyone who observed her situation.
