Car over the bank drill

This is what the members rolled up to see at the training,

one car over the bank.

The members had to extricate one person from the under side of the car and the driver from the driver seat.

The car was stablized with three of the four point struts from Res-Q-Jack.

The members cut the roof off with the Hurst Jaws of Life (new) Moc 2 Cutters and a Sawsall.

I'm seeing if the car is still safe to work around, it was still stable.
