Passers-by save the people in a Maruti car that fell into a canal on Pharenda Road

Key Lessons

• Passers-by reached the car and saved the people inside.
• General guidance: if a car goes into water, unbuckle and leave through a window or door at once, before it fills, and call 112.
• General guidance: people on the bank should use a rope, a long pole or a cloth from firm ground and avoid jumping in unless they are trained.
• General guidance: canal banks are steep and slippery. Keep your distance from the edge and call for help early.
