An on-vehicle flash flood safety system is disclosed to install a water level sensor between front tires, underneath of vehicle which checks the water level on road. When the water level is found above a predetermined mark, an extendible-retractable shaft is extended which contains a water flow sensor and SONAR device to find the depth and speed of flash flood water. This data is sent to a Control, Display, and Alert Unit which calculates if it is dangerous to enter into such water. If found dangerous, the system gives an audio-visual alarm. System also collects location using GPS and sends location, water, and speed of water data to a computer server to be stored and distributed to other vehicles. By means of the aforesaid performance, on-vehicle flash flood alarm System informs the driver of the motor vehicle to not proceed if there is danger of the vehicle getting swept away.
