Loren and Margie Miller were near Las Vegas on their trip to Kentucky to visit their son when a flash flood swept them into a near-death experience, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports. As the rain accumulated, the couple's new van was overtaken by the water. Margie opened her car door in an attempt to stop the door from jamming shut, but she was sucked into the quick-moving waters. After being carried about 100 yards while struggling to stay above the water, a police officer pulled her to safety. Loren, meanwhile, was able to climb on top of the van, where some construction workers came to his aid.

Doesn't sound like they tried to cross it.

This type of shite happens all the time there. A storm that you guys are used to will flood parts of LV easily.

He probably would have just gotten himself drowned had he tried to save her, but I bet that will get thrown back in his face during some future argument.
