Apparently owning a Corvette doesn't excuse you from the "Stupid driver" rule in Arizona.

Growing up in Tucson we would see idiots drive into the washes after a hard rain and get swept away during the monsoon season. Often taking their lives. But a Vette would be a first, usually they are driving a 4WD since we all know they can go anywhere.

An amphibian car in the desert would be about as useful as Sweets with a lawn mower.

Yeah, but when it floods you'd be glad to have it.

Yes, that would be logical. Unfortunately for most of those who drive into the flooding washes, logic is in short supply.
