It often leads to splashing dirty water on nearby pedestrians.
Reduced braking ability
Yes it can
No
Not that I know of but have a mechanic check to see if there is a stick or something caught behind a wheel.

Driving through deep water can be dangerous, especially if it affects your brakes. If your brakes are unresponsive after driving through flooded areas, it’s crucial to pull over safely and assess the situation. Water can cause brake components to malfunction or lead to hydroplaning, so it's important to drive cautiously in rainy conditions and avoid large puddles whenever possible. Always ensure your vehicle is in good condition to handle adverse weather.
There is a shield that prevents water from getting on the PS belt. It is missing or damaged. Also check to see if the belt is properly tensioned.
The purpose of an earth strap is to ground the vehicle. Most vehicles have a negative earth, which is bolted to the chassis of the vehicle, not left dangling to drag through puddles.
Well....Seeing how this happened to me a month ago I'll give you a heads up. Worst case you could've bent a connecting rod (Hydraulic Lock-Up), or maybe sucked enough water (mists of water) through the air intake to thin out the oil to a point where you spun a bearing, or you even could've bent a valve. BUT... Driving through puddles isn't a big deal. Calling roadside assistants from the middle of a river is.
they live in puddles and they drink the puddles and they eat the mud in the puddles :)
It goes through a cycle: first it falls from the clouds, then it gathers into puddles and then it evaporates witch happens by the sun it heats up the puddles and those puddles evaporate into or in clouds then when the clouds get colder rain drops then the cycle goes again. Hoped it helped you
Driving through water can lead to several hazards, including loss of vehicle control, engine damage, and electrical system failures. Water can enter the engine or exhaust systems, potentially causing hydro-lock, which can severely damage the engine. Additionally, driving through deep water can lead to the vehicle being swept away or becoming submerged, posing a significant safety risk to the occupants. It's essential to avoid driving through flooded areas whenever possible.
