Moron Keeps Driving Through Flood, Almost Kills Self, Dog

This man endangered himself and his dog by
driving into a flood this week in Ardmore, OK.   

As has been in the news all week, Tropical Storm, then Depression Bill caused widespread flooding in the southern Plains and the Ohio Valley this week.

One particularly hard hit town was Ardmore, in southern Oklahoma.

An infuriating video is making the rounds of a guy doing almost everything you can possibly do wrong in a flood.

He drives his vehicle at least twice through fast flowing water. He said it was the only way to get to his neighborhood, according to the notes you'll see with the YouTube video, below.

The vehicle naturally stalls out. The man gets out, and retrieves his leashed dog, and staggers out of the flood. Both survived, but only luckily.

First of all, you don't drive through water like that. And then he gets out. The knee deep, rushing water could have washed him, or his obviously terrified dog away.  Plus the dog's leash could have gotten caught on something and dragged the poor thing under.

Was this just macho shit on the part of the guy? Does he like to terrify his dog, or is this just a one-off? Can he be charged with endangering the life of an animal, or himself?

Anyway, here's the video demonstrating exactly what you shouldn't do in a flood:
