What can happen in an auto accident and what the authorities say to do

(From 6/1/00 Miami Herald article in Action Line)

The most important thing is not to panic. If your windows are open or you can open them, follow the advice POGO - Pop your safety belt, Open the window, Get Out.

If you can't get out through the window, try the door. At first, the water pressure will keep it closed. As the water rises inside the car, it will equalize the pressure and you should be able to open it.

Don't panic because the struggle will wear you down float to the top so you can breathe. Crack open the windows slightly to allow water in slowly until the car is three-quarters full. Then you should be able to open the door.

If your doors have power locks you can open the locks manually.

If your car has power windows and they're shut, they may short-circuit once the car is submerged. The only way to deal with that is to break the glass.

Having something readily available to do that could save your life. Ponds and lakes are often murky so don't count on being able to see much.

"Mr. White --I've gotten together a "road emergency" kit for each of my family members, blanket, hand warmers, small snack foods, hats, gloves, etc. I saw your auto escape hammer earlier in the week and didn't order.

My husband was in a very bad accident last evening, one which involved not only being trapped by his airbag, but, when he finally got the bag away from his face, he couldn't get the seatbelt undone, which wasn't good news considering the flames he could see coming from the engine...needless to say, I would like to purchase 3 of these hammers...as I should have the first time I saw them. Thank you for selling this product."

Emergency hammer history

An emergency hammer is a safety device used in vehicles to break through window glass in an emergency.

It is a simple tool with a plastic handles and steel tip. Its primary use is for breaking through vehicle windows, which are often tempered, in the event of a crash which prevents exit through the doors. They are commonly found on public transport, in particular trains and buses. The example pictured also illustrates a cutting tool at the other end of the hammer. This is used for cutting through seatbelts in the event that they are inhibiting a passengers exit.

Safety Hammers are also known as bus mallets, safety mallet and bus hammers. On Most safety hammers can be found a restricting cable, which prevents passengers using the safety hammer as a weapon to incapacitate or otherwise mortally injure other passengers. The cable also prevents the safety hammer being stolen, in which case it could not be used in an emergency as it is not there.

Safety hammers can be purchased by consumers to store in their personal vehicles to provide a means of escape should the doors become unusable (such as in an accident or if the vehicle falls into water and is sinking).
