Car looks like it needs a little work before the next MOT.

Typical school run driver standing on the brakes for no reason and the Bus taught them a valuable lesson about that

2024 and LFB are still cutting roofs off cars - facepalm

[@douglasstocks9698]

They go on the orders of the paramedics. As you don't know what injuries the the people in the car suffered.

Most good paramedics stopped that practice many years ago. Evidence based medicine vs superstition. And if a patient is presenting as a spinal injury, they come out the side of the car and not the roof. UK fire brigades continue to lag badly behind their colleagues unfortunately. Hundreds of years of tradition unimpeded by progress.
