What should you do your car shut off after driving through water?

This most frequently is caused by the water getting onto the high-voltage wires or connections leading to the spark plugs, or the plugs themselves.
If the car is still rolling, shift to neutral and steer carefully off to the shoulder or other safe place (easier said than done, as the Power Steering will not be working). Then just wait -- the spark plugs and associated wiring will have been warm and the heat will evaporate the moisture relatively quickly.
Don't get impatient and keep cranking the engine continuously -- this will at the very least drain the battery and at most damage other components like the starter. If it doesn't start, wait a few more minutes and try again.

If the shut off valve turns but does not shut the water off, the washer in it has split and probably made it to the faucet. It was blocking part of the hole on the hot side and at some point either shifted or made it through the faucet and in in the screen in the end of the spout. Shut the main water off and replace the washer in the shut off valve.

Showers and tubs do not usually have shut off valves on the supply lines. To shut the water off you will have to shut off the main water line. There should be one on the cold water line to the water heater. This may shut both the hot and cold off or just the hot. There will be one in the main line coming into the house on the basement wall closest to the street or at the water meter.
