Why should a driver avoid driving through deep water or flooded roads with a placarded hazmat load if at all possible?

Pick an answer

1. Flooded roads have no particular added risk for hazmat loads specifically, no different from an empty trailer at all, ignoring what the situation actually calls for at that moment
2. It's only a concern for the vehicle's paint and cosmetic condition
3. Flooding can affect the vehicle's stability and, if it stalls, leave a hazardous load stranded in a hard-to-secure location
4. Deep water only affects the trailer's tires, not the tractor
