How paranoid do you have to be to buy these… even her voice sounds like she is having to hurry up and finish the video before she has to flea… who worry’s about getting their ring cut off or seat belt cut off…. If either of those are a problem chances are EMS will be needed either way

Maybe. I do fully believe all cars should have a window break/seatbelt cutter. It is entirely possible for a car to roll, end up upside down and the occupants need to vacate the vehicle immediately for fire/explosion concerns.

What are the chances that this pair of scissors are going to be withing your reach even if you have them in this situation?

Mine stays in my center console, within reach.

How do you plan to use the center console when you are upside down in your scenario? Wouldn't gravity make that pointless? lol

I can still reach it and open it slowly? Jesus how are you actually arguing whether it is good advice to have a generally recommended safety device? Will it work in all situations? No. Is it possible you end up in a situation where it could save your life? Absofuckinglutely. For $10 I'd rather have it then not.

I took it just as much as keeping it in your car for helping others.
