It seems likely. That vehicle was just swallowed by a flooding river. It's technically possible the occupants escaped, but unlikely.

I was hoping for a no, but thanks for the realistic analysis.

It's not easy for people to escape a submerged vehicle in still body of water, especially if the vehicle flips. Add in a raging river tumbling everything around, pushing everywhere... Even if you were able to escape the vehicle I don't think your chances of making it to shore from the middle would be good.
