    Wendy-that is a very good question and it made me laugh-thank you-but seriously why didn’t they get me out of the passenger side door unless it had to do with the fact my neck was in a brace and the car was a 5 speed?

    I was wondering about this accident. It looks like the fire department fought with prying open the driver’s side door to get you out. Why didn’t they just walk around to the other side and open the passenger door?

    Z–The Chevy should pick on some one it’s own size. It’s just a bully.
