30 minutes to move the car to get to him?
Was he also locked up in chains and tied with pretty bows? Did they break for lunch? Car wouldn't start and they needed to run down to the local gas station?
Funny. This is a problem the rest of the world solves with a dozen guys in about 10 seconds.
30 minutes to not kill him
Remove a vehicle pinning a person too quickly and a number of things might happen. Permanent paralysis from unsupported spinal fractures. Hemorrhage. Shock and blood loss.
If you have the time to assess and stabilize someone, you don't create a worse situation by suddenly changing things for the sake of misplaced valor.
Im sure Mr. anon
has seen a lot of peoples bodies (with bones and tissues) tangled with metal and has removed them with ease.
Longwood
I'm guessing Mr. Anon also doesn't work in the Longwood area down the street.
So, uh, how did the guy manage to accelerate at that intersection? Every time I go there, tons o' traffic. Wait your turn.
