People rescued from stranded car as torrential rain across Toronto causes flooding 

There’s no way that woman couldn’t just open the door get out of her car. She also has a sunroof.

What would this society do and look like if there was a real emergency? Scary to think people are this helpless

Rescued in knee-deep water!!! Irony!!!

Imagine having to be "rescued" from knee high water. I guess our bathtubs are extreme and scary.. sigh. This goes hand in hand with "extreme heat wave".......... of 30 degrees. lmao

This is just stupidity

The larger the city, the softer and more helpless the people are. In my city, the fireman would have told her to get her ass out of the car because they have real emergencies to get to.

Was this a photo op or are those folks really that helpless?

If its not snow its rain making Toronto look stupid.

Hey the water is starting to get rly deep lets keep driving

Rescued!? How embarrassing. Society is in bad shape for sure

“Rescued” lmfao… yeah that looked really dangerous, wading through that calf-high barely moving water - was very important to have the firefighters there to hold your hand while you *walk yourself* out of the big puddle… thanks for the non-story G&M!

Good to see capable rescuers, getting people from flooded car!

The water doesn't look deep until you step in a manhole that the cover has been displaced because of a surcharged sewer. You know, when you see water spraying up through those little holes on the lid? The next thing that happens is a moving manhole cover. You can't see this in that dirty water. Glub glub.

This was one little spot in Toronto and you’re all hating on the city and its people lol. That’s what’s funny here. Get off RU-vid and go meet your fellow Canadians instead of raging on the internet.

Rescued? More like people were escorted from the car because they are unable to walk through shallow water. Car rescues usually involve the car being underwater with rushing water…

always the same area

Good to see Justin’s carbon tax working to prevent climate change. 😂

*Omg, what a waste of government services "rescuing" that lady. The water is barely up to the bottom of her door, and is LOWER than knee height! She doesn't appear to be elderly or disabled either. She should have been forced to wait, like a triage situation. This is like showing up to the emergency room with a scraped knee...AND she was literally the only one thick enough to even try that road...the driver's ed book needs desperate updating. Even though it happened to a friend's mom years ago (with the famous pic of the Ferrari stuck in water) I still find it hilarious that people drive into enormous pools expecting to be fine 😂. At least my buddy's dad had a pickup, and he went and just pushed their minivan out of the water (still had to wait until the next day before it would start). Seeing Honda Civics stuck in water up to the windows just won't get old though.

this is giving massive "HELP, I'VE FALLEN AND CAN'T GET UP" vibes. jesus christ.

how did these people not just walk the same route out of their car?????

Torrential rain? You're joking right? The water was still, not even flowing, and barely knee deep. This is 'reporting' at its lowest form.

thank god they got out safely 😔

How many people got into accidents, got stuck, and had a horrible day because they were forced into the office when their job could have easily been done at home? This is why we need to fight against forced RTO

Why is there only one car? Oh, right, everyone else stopped driving when the water got too deep.

Society is pretty cucked nowadays huh...😑

Rescued? Its not even knee deep 😂

Wow the production …..

The horror. Ankle deep water and you need rescued by these resources. Can't wait untill the electricity goes off for a week. The nanny state and the people of toronto at their best.

So if our taxes aren't going to basic core services, like drainage and sewer, where are they going?

Near my area, i had to go to a school with my mom so i can go to school. When we left the school, the water wasnt high enough since we were in Missisuaga. We experienced 2 cm flood that made our shoes wet.

Rescued ?

How those ppl droves there in to the flood?

Guess how that smells

People read my lips " Stop driving whenever there's extreme weather 😑

Somehow the comments gonna blame Trudeau for this

When people decide to try driving in such conditions, the can be rescued from the car but not from their own folly.

What a waste of tax dollars that knee deep water rescue was. This is where protocol has become a joke. Full bunker gear helmet and life jacket for a knee deep water rescue. We’ve become a complete joke as a society

There's deeper waters in the mall penny fountains 😂

The amount of ignorance in these comments is astounding.

Why did she need a life jacket in such a small amount of water? 😂

Just proves Toronto is a swamp.

And they put a life jacket on her!!

oh come one what a waste of resources, they didn't need help let alone a rescue

"Rescued" from 1' of water. 😂😅😂

they could have just walked out of the car, this seems like nothing. unless u have a basement

God bless those people who are given opportunities and took them, to be of help somehow, in some ways in certain situations, in front of them. To God be the glory. 🙏 One can never be sure when they will be in need of help. Better hope and pray, there will be some good hearted people around, willing to help without hesitations. 😇 God is good, always watching, he makes ways for us, if he wills. 🙏❤️

Kind of puts into perspective the softness of Canadians & its people (Ontario), and the fact that Toronto is a baby tucked away nested city, that among the entire globe & human habitation, it is situated away from earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, hurricanes, typhoons, tornadoes, wildfires, landslides, avalanches, blizzards, sandstorms, severe droughts and severe flooding (not mild flooding).

It’s not a River 📢 you can just walk out of there📢

Que pena!

Man to everyone roasting this lady a few points to consider. Ever waded through a current that was up to your knees? It is really hard. You cannot see what you're stepping on and it's very easy to loose your balance. A strong laminar current wont even look thay strong but once you're in it the force of it is amazing. You can see the water moving around her car and the hwy is effectively acting like a river. Even the Firefighters are concerned about it, you can see them all wearing tethers. Have a little compassion for her. Imagine you were stuck in her spot.

One is the storm...!? The roads who makes them soooo many construction everywhere....??!! Waist of our taxes!! Lakeshore is mess were is water gone go ???

Well

is anybody testing these waters for weather manipulation chemicals? anybody getting burns or rashes from being in the water? wth is going on?

Rescued? From 10 inches of water?l guess you don t take baths...

this is a joke right

We used to swim on that back home easy

Reminds me of back home in India. 💩

Is this a joke?

Its ok they have renamed a square

Seriously?

People are pathetic.

Embarrassing

Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future.., I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life!!

No water got inside the car 😂

Please sar do not redeem sar

Our insurance will go up

Bruh

It’s the “Far Right’s” fault 😂

But no politicians have the guts to talk about deadly climate change killing us.

lol dafuq is this

Stop geo engineering!

Of course it's an immigrant.

Hows that drought going leftists?

Why weren't taxes dollars used for better road infrastructure and flood issues. But here we are spending ridiculous amount on sign name changes, giving our moneybto Ukraine and painting rainbows on cross roads

You get what you vote for😂

We are living in Idiocracy.

Why couldn’t they just open the door and walk out themselves ? They are lucky to live somewhere that somebody will feed them let alone rescue them , and these are the people who are procreating the most 😂
