Jaws of Life
An interesting bit here in Globe Auto... about how much more difficult it is for emergency workers to extricate car crash victims, now that vehicles have so many safety features. That's one of those things you never think about. Extrications on newer cars can now take twice as long as they used to, extending the critical arrival time at a hospital. Apparently air bags and hybrid car cables present real hazards. Interesting read.
