It is good to see the process. So your photo was already black and white? You made something dark out of it, good for a Halloween movie or horror. Just a pity the wet of the road doesn't show clearer.
I doubt taking a photo from the passenger's seat, climbing over while driving is a great idea.
The storm had already done most of the desaturating, and the asphalt had drunk up most of the water. With that much safety, you can afford to take a few risks.
