The problem with driving a lightweight vehicle window sill deep into MOVING water is that it will float away from the roadway, and possibly turn turtle and trap the driver. After the engine hydro-locks. Morons drive cars into these situations.
Even a serious off-road prepped diesel truck with a snorkels, large suspension lift and lots of extra weight will get into trouble this way.

The serious drivers will rope up and wade the river first, and if it is too deep they won't chance it.
