    If the occupant is unconscious, dragging one out of the window can make things significantly worse if there are injuries from a crash. The door handle should always be available. Even if the door won’t open on one side because of an impact there, use the other side. There are much better alternatives than dragging someone over shattered glass out of a window.

      It’s safety glass. More like pebbles than sharp shards. Please drag me over shattered automotive glass if I’m otherwise burning alive in a car.

      Life over limbs. If the vehicle is on fire and I’m unconscious, fucking drag me out by any means necessary.
