Key Lessons

  • The customer went to the injured driver straight away instead of watching from a distance.
  • The driver was pulled out before the car was consumed by flames.
  • General guidance: call 112 or 108 first, and move an injured person only when there is an immediate danger such as fire.
  • General guidance: once the person is out, move well away from a burning car, as the fire can spread quickly.
