Why would someone refuse rescue after a car sank into the river? Could shock or fear explain it?

I agree, shock or panic fit make person freeze and decline help in that moment.

I can see shock is possible, but sometimes confusion underwater or expectation of worse dangers could freeze someone.

It seems odd that he resisted rescue when bystanders risked themselves to pull him out.

I'm not sure refusing rescue always means foul play; stress can make anyone freeze during a crisis.

Next time authorities should clear bystanders and use flotation devices before attempting to pull someone from a submerged vehicle.
