Frequently Asked Questions
What injuries are most common in car accidents like this one?
Crashes involving entrapment frequently cause fractures, head and chest injuries, and internal injuries, since extrication can take time and the force involved tends to be severe.
Why do some crashes require extrication equipment?
When a vehicle's frame or doors are badly damaged, fire crews commonly use hydraulic tools to cut or pry open the structure so trapped occupants can be removed safely.
What should drivers do when approaching an active crash scene?
Slow down, move over if possible, and follow instructions from responders or signage. This gives emergency crews room to work and lowers the chance of a secondary crash.
