Last Wednesday I was cramming for an exam at like 3 in the morning and heard a screech and a bang, got my dad up (he's an RN) and told him I'd heard an accident. We ran out and like half a block down a car had went into someone's front yard and crashed into a tree. Before we got there 3 passengers and the driver got out of the car and took off, but the girl in the front seat's head had struck the glass, cutting her face up pretty good. The door was mangled so we cleared out the window and tried to get her out but her seatbelt was jammed, luckily one of the other guys that showed up had a swiss army knife and we managed to cut it and get her out of the car. Went out and bought myself a car multitool with a seatbelt cutter the next day, because I realized that even though the seatbelt can help you live through the accident, it can also stop you from getting away from a dangerous situation after the accident.
