Did you know that before getting a car scrapped money can be had (apparently) by letting the fire brigade practice taking the roof off. It will still weigh the same. I know a garage that does this.
Well, funnily enough she remembers finding herself hanging upside down by the seatbelt and being astonished to find herself more or less unscathed. The engine was still running and fearing fire she turned it, the radio and the lights off before attempting to free herself. Her minor injuries resulted more from forgetting to put her hands up when she released the seatbelt. Fell on her head onto the smashed windscreen and did hurt her neck a bit. I guess the question was asked and as you say the cutters came out. They took her out on a spinal board despite her protestations. ( she's quite skilled at protesting ) Anyway, I suppose they have to be sure.
I assume Zero is saying this from his experience. I believe their logic is the insurance company should cover their costs. They sort of have a point. But what about other callouts that are not motoring related.
This country is messed up isn't it. Time to bring forward my escape plan.
