You do understand my point, though, right? If you have had even basic first aid, you know. I work in Medicine, so I have to know. Moving someone who has been ejected from a vehicle can kill or paralyze them.

Unless that person is not breathing and you have to start it, or if they are bleeding out and it must be stopped, you do not move the patient unless you are a trained professional and have the assistance and equipment to do so. That is a basic rule of trauma.

Besides, the fact she put the kid in the seat indicated that getting the child out of harms way was not her primary concern.

She may have been in shock, and people do strange things in shock, it is true.
