Hi! I (21) drove during a thunderstorm a little over a month ago. I ended up getting stuck in what I thought was a puddle, but was actually about a foot deep. My car stalled and I ended up having it towed back to my house. Long story short, my insurance company paid for a replacement engine, among other things.

I just got it back from the shop yesterday, and today it decides to start raining after I leave the house. I’m sitting in a parking lot right now, scared to drive home in fear of landing in another Olympic pool lol

Are my fears justified, and if you’ve been in a similar spot, what steps can I take to get over it?
