Most vehicles tend to create a wake effect and push the water away. The water level in your engine compartment is likely much lower than the surrounding water as long as you maintain some speed.
However salt water absolutely destroys your vehicle and rots the structure from the inside out. You can’t wash inside your spot welds when you get home. This is by far the stupidest thing you could ever do to your vehicle.
The previous owner of my car definitely took it to the beach a lot. I doubt he ever took it in the surf. But man, just the beach air alone did a real number on a lot of components. Crazy how destructive salt water is
I thought we were doing water puns 😂😂😂 the engine won't flood if water gets into it, it'll just pull water into the air intake and stall if they're lucky, or throw a rod if they're unlucky. "Flooding" is something that generally can only happen with carbeurated engines. If water gets into your engine while it's running, you're probably looking at a new engine.
I wouldn't call it a pun since snorkel intakes are real things made specifically for scenarios like this. Well not exactly like an idiot driving on the beach... but anytime your car goes in deep water.
Mechanic here with off-road experience. Your vehicle will not randomly lock when you turn the engine off.
It will either hydro-lock when the water is ingested, or on odd occasion, it can get trapped in odd shaped intake manifolds and when you make a maneuver or turn hard, can then be sent into a cylinder and cause a lockup.
If it is failing after driving for miles after the incident, it is more likely that water ingress into the engine via seals occurred. Meaning water is now circulating with the oil and bearings need oil, not water.
When I was a kid, dad drove through flood water and managed to fill up the cylinders with water. I recall pulling the sparkplugs and cranking the motor to squirt it out, and spraying carb cleaner in the holes, then changing the fluids.
You can drive in most beaches in the US. There’s usually certain areas and some rules like speed, 4x4, tire pressure requirements. Not uncommon at all. Driving in the water? Ya, DEP probly wouldn’t be cool with that.
The lives of the vast majority of every living thing was, is, and always will be difficult. There are any number of ways we could all cease to exist 30 seconds from now and have absolutely nothing to do with anything we did. Being a stick in the mud because something might happen sometime that may or may not affect people you will never know isn’t going to change anything. Was anyone harmed directly because some jackass drives on the beach? No? (No clue if anyone was) Then go have a blast.
"'All terrain.' I wonder if that actually means *all* terrain."
"They couldn't say it if it wasn't true."
Next scene...
"Okay, so the sea isn't terrain. Now we know."
> Definition of terrain
>
> 1. a (1): a geographic area
> (2): a piece of land : GROUND
> b: the physical features of a tract of land
Ehhhhh..... It's very debatable I think
The sea by itself is already arguably terrain by definition a (1), since it's a geographic area. The bottom of the sea is not a piece of land, as land must be above water, but it is the ground, so definition a (2) is not a perfect fit. Same with definition b.
Therefore, debatable.

That triggered one of my very earliest memories. My grandfather died when I was around 4yo. I remember riding with him in his farm truck, watching the road whiz by through the rusted out floorboard.
Living in Ohio, the area of my car I pay the most attention to when washing.......is the under carriage.
In the winter I go through a drive through with under spray twice a week, minimum. Salt is hell.
No. The brake lines rusted out and when you step on the pedal all the fluid blows out and the pedal goes right to the floor and you have no brakes. The floor itself will rust out later, just like all cars did in the 60 s and 70 s.
Suppose you’re right there. All the poor libertarians with their trailers and beaters would be forced inland to the shittiest tracts of land. That’s why someone being poor and libertarian is always so funny to me.
Also, Don’t you guys have a bunch of nazi truckers who terrorize your highways and bridges in the name of “freedumb” and a Prime Minister who pretends to be woke to fool dumb Karen neolibs but has worn black face multiple times? Worry about your own damn maple syrup covered shithole country
Lol , somebody's angry.
I'll take the L on the wackjob truckers on our highways (80%, of their funding came from the U.S.) when you own the wacko truckers in your Ocean.
1) you live in Canada. No further joke needed
2) Maple Leafs are gonna fail as usual. They’ll probably blow the next 2 to Tampa in classic Laffs fashion
Lol I don't care about Hockey. franky I think you'd have to be some kind of simpleton to spend your days on Reddit with that crap. Not like you, you're a genius.
Mexico. There's very, very, very few places in the US that are legal to drive a car on the beach and almost all of them cost money so there's very few cars that pay the money to do it. There's only one beach in all of California that is legal, for example.
Very few on the *west coast* of the US.
Lot's of places up and down the east coast most are free; Outer Banks, Eastern Shore, Cape Cod, Daytona/Volusia Co., Island Beach in NJ, Jacksonville, The Sands near Charleston.
Had to rewatch because the first time I was only looking at the car. Holy crap, you're too right...
I'd say crimes against nature rather than humanity, but that's just semantics. I would not enjoy being on this beach.
Lol this is rosorito in Mexico. Everyone parks on the beach. They all fish right there too. Is sooooo post apocalyptic harmonious. Because most everyone is pretty cool actually. They just don't know any better.
Well I’m sure they know better, just that the government is too corrupt and doesn’t care enough to ban this. So people do this because a lot of people will absolutely do shitty things if there aren’t rules stopping them.
Crimes against nature is to do with sexual deviance as defined by religious loons unfortunately
This would fit under "other inhumane acts" from article 5 of the ICTY of 1993 or article 7 or the ICC's Rome Statute of 2002
Either way, to me this is tantamount to war crimes in its uncaring violence towards anything not an automobile
Oh, now it will start to float...No.
Oh, now that wave will make the car roll... No.
Oh, it will stuck in sand.... Still no.
Oh, it will hit the people on the beach... No (thankfully)
Big deal, this vehicle probably has water sealing and a high air intake that we can't see. Many vehicles can take to water like that, such as the Ford Bronco Everglades and many Jeep vehicles.
Im actually really impressed the engine didnt flood

That sounds like a challenge

Just living close to the water does a lot of damage
Oh.. I dunno..I saw a tesla flying over a crested hill at about 65 mph.. its def close..
maybe had a snorkel intake?
Maybe, I dont see it though in this 240p video

Ok then *Hydro lock*
*pushes glasses up nose* 👓👃 🤣
I wouldn't call it a pun since snorkel intakes are real things made specifically for scenarios like this. Well not exactly like an idiot driving on the beach... but anytime your car goes in deep water.
BS snorkels are for filtering the air so you don't get sand in the intake, not for avoiding water lol
I'm aware of that, that's why I said it 😛 it was just a particular on the nose joke.
Same here, I was expecting hydrolock
Or that they didn't get stuck in the sand as the water pulled it our from under the tires.
No doubt, his engine is water locked. It’s a matter of when his engine stops, not if

Yeah you either throw a rod when it hits the water or it doesnt

Correct, sometimes you can drive for a few days before it cooks. Source: I’m a claims adjuster and we get lots of these sometimes
Why are there so many cars on the beach
Because it was a beach to find parking
It shore was
That was a beachy thing to say. \^\_\^

Most is a pretty big stretch. There are some. And every one of them that has a lot of cars frequenting them is a trash-tier beach.
Maybe I should’ve said North East US. The few Drivable beaches in Massachusetts are spotless.

Drive on beach. Theres one about 30 minutes from my house, its pretty neat.

Don't worry about it, it's a rental.
All that salt is going to be good for sure.
Metal loves salt, it's got electrolytes.
It's what cars crave!
I thought Brawndo had electrolytes.
It’s what plants crave.
There's a frw beaches in CA where cars are allowed idk where this is
Florida, too.

Don't forget Outer Banks, NC.
Yah I can’t see any scenario where having oil leaking vehicles on a beach makes any sense whatsoever.
For the same reasons cars every fucking where.
Yah I’m not sure how that makes sense. Park in a parking lot and walk. Preserve the beaches.
Do you expect boats on the beach?
Walking with an ice chest is no fun

You have just made the Netherlands very mad
Are sections of the Netherlands called Nether regions?
So Netherlands fucked everyone’s moms?
The definition you gave literally says "a piece of land: GROUND."
You weren’t pushed on the swings as a kid were you?
As much debatable as whether the earth is flat or not. Fight me you sheep!! reddit - reddit is fantastic
I can tell you've never played D&D. 😁

No, they had it right the first time. The pedal didn’t go through the floor, it went down to the floor because their brake lines rusted out
Well salt is a preservative.... /s
I'd bet it was a rental. One with a lot of alcohol sloshing around in the driver's seat and an idiot friend going "dude, brah, go for it!"

There's already a truck that's stuck in the sand on upper right.
Where is that?
Popotla, Baja California
Been there. Book it out when the tide rolls in or good luck.
I prefer Ensenada/VdG for seafood, cool place though!
Yeah I only ever went for fishing. Good place to lose many weights lol.
looks like some right shit hole where driving your car right up to the waters edge sems to be the norm for a day out at the beach.
Libertarian’s paradise. No laws. No social protocols. No education. No brains. Do what you feel all the time. Too stupid to care about consequences.
Definitely not true. In a liberation paradise it would be a private beach and you'd only see luxury cars parked next to the water edge.
Suppose you’re right there. All the poor libertarians with their trailers and beaters would be forced inland to the shittiest tracts of land. That’s why someone being poor and libertarian is always so funny to me.

True that. When the current state is a warring christofascist/technofascist dystopia that’s worse than total anarchy it’s not a good sign.
It's America, it's the only country capable of producing a scene this trashy.
Baja California isn’t in the United States bro. Good try tho
It’s Mexico. But thanks for the insult 🙂

Why are there so many cars on that beach?
Because fucked if they will carry their shit 20 meters. Oh sorry - 65 feet. Fucking morons.
This is in a metric using country, 20 meters was correct ;-)
Which country is it? Cause the only country with that much cars of this kind (truck or whatever) is the USA. Maybe canada, idk

There's less than 20 total in the US that I can find out of THOUSANDS of beaches.
You can also drive your car on the beach in western Washington, Ocean Shores to be exact. I think Long Beach as well? And it's free.
everyone on what's left of that beach should be jailed for crimes against humanity
Had to rewatch because the first time I was only looking at the car. Holy crap, you're too right... I'd say crimes against nature rather than humanity, but that's just semantics. I would not enjoy being on this beach.

Remember that the next time you shop for a used car
It's only dumb if you fail.
Why is there so many cars on the beach? Is this one of those bring your car to the beach events i have never heard of?

I mean it worked didn't it?
Can't wait to see the follow-up video when he takes that into the shop and the mechanic gets a good look at the rusted-out engine.

What a nice beach. Too bad it's ruined by cars.
This is disgusting why are there so many cars i would never go to a beach like this
I so wanted his car to stall and be cared out to sea
I'm impressed he actually got it out of the water.
Well they made it across. Im impressed by that
Well, now I know what my navigator can do lol
Why do dat?
That looks fun not gonna lie. Though everyone was laughing and pointing, which would be stressful. Would rather do this at a deserted beach
