I wanted to devote one blog post to the automobile extrication product category because I don’t think enough people take it very seriously. A business contact of mine, who works for the American Automobile Association, better known as AAA, told me that more and more seniors are getting trapped in their cars on short road tips.

Either they accidentally drive their car into a some sort of a canal or get rear ended by a truck. Older folks are dying after accidents because they can’t free themselves from the seat belt or sealed windows. If they were able to climb out of their cars fairly quickly, they still would be alive today.

Two of the extrication tools I’m talking about are Life Hammer and ResQMe. They are used to shatter side windows and cut through safety belts. They only cost around $15 to $25. The manufacturer suggests you have these tools handy right above the windshield for easy access. The video explains how they can be safely installed and secured.
