FWIW, I have heard that if your car is going into the water, you want to roll your windows down (counter-intuitively), since otherwise it gets very hard to open the doors.
If anyone knows this to be wrong, or has other practical advice for such circumstances, please let me know, since in the middle of nights like last night I like to lay awake in bed and picture how I'd get children in carseats out of vehicles that have plunged into a major river.

Yes. If the water rises too high above the bottom of the door, the differential in pressure inside vs. outside makes it too difficult for you to get the door open (or to roll down the windows).
This handy safety tip was brought to you by Mythbusters.
