And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
I really struggle to understand why this would be needed. If you have wrecked a car so bad that the seat belt is locked and a window needs to be broken to get out, you probably won't be fit to use one of these. Just sayin.
I was among the first at an auto accident (a van rolled) and it was really really hard to break the windows let alone get the people out of the seat belts. I bought a folding knife with a striker (like that) and seat belt cutting slot that I keep in the car just in case that ever happens again.
After you find and fumble with the catch. Some you have to insert a paper clip into a small hole to disengage the latch. That’s there to keep you from removing it and throwing it away.
"Wear resistant"???? How many times do they think I'm going to need one of these???!!! And to echo an earlier commenter- if you really need this, you're probably not capable of reaching or using it.

Supposedly, the headrest can be pulled up out of the seat and the metal beam the pad is fastened to can be used to break out a window.

ReplyDeleteYou might come across an accident where having this tool could save someone's life.
DeleteA center punch works well to break car windows,
ReplyDeleteA blade that has to be pushed into the belt, instead of pulled, is not a good thing.
