Witnesses tried to rescue the girl. They said the fire started slowly and didn’t seem like a big problem at first, but just kept growing bigger. They couldn’t get the doors open and couldn’t cut the seatbelts in time. The single fire extinguisher on hand couldn’t handle the gasoline fire.
“couldn’t cut the seatbelts in time.”
City people, nobody had a knife.
I stupidly watched a Russian video of a car on fire and the trapped driver trying to crawl out of the window while fully enflamed. I wish I had it on mute is all I can say and wish I never clicked on it.
Worse than you can imagine.
Poor girl and her dog.
My son and his friends almost died in a similar car crash.
It doesn’t take long for flames to engulf a car.
Right now I have a carpet knife, a big Buck knife, a cheapo 3 dollar pocket knife, an old fashioned Winchester pocketknife, and a folding multi-tool with a knife and pliers, etc., built in, in my pockets. Carry them every day...except Sunday when I only carry the pocketknives. If I had been there with my truck there would have been a cordless Sawzall and a battery powered chain saw, too. Even if you don’t have a knife, break a bottle or morrow and use the glass to cut. Don’t they have ANY rednecks out there?
