A vehicle safety device designed for emergency situations where a vehicle becomes submerged in water includes a water tight housing with water sensors, an inlet valve operatively coupled to one of the sensors, and liquid flow channel. The device may be configured for being installed in the engine compartment of the vehicle. Upon detection of submersion, the device activates an interior lighting system, comprising LED light strips, to enhance visibility and reduce disorientation. Powered by a power source, such as solar panels or the vehicle's battery, the device aims to increase occupants' chances of survival and escape during underwater emergencies.
