We all at times think we are the best drivers in the world and the other driver is always wrong.
Moving away from this I think the law should be that every car has a first aid kit and a fire extinguisher, lotsof the public have a first aid kit but not many have the fire extinguisher,as some of you already know some years ago I came across a 3car crash,there were about 6cars in front of me,with a man running up and down shouting" as any one got a fire extinguisher the car is on fire and a girl inside." I got out because not only was I a first aider but I also had a fire extinguisher in the car,What I am trying to say is that it is no good having a first aid kit with you if you can not get to the person because of a fire.
In this case I only had a small extinguisher but it put out the fire and I could get in to try and help the person,we have no need to go on with what happen next but the main point is please please get a fire extinguisher as well as your first aid kit,I carry a bigger one round with me now,like me it was in the back of the car some years before i had to use it but use it I did.
I was on the Town council at the time and I wrote letters to motor companys asking that they fit them in all new cars,but that did not happen,but I went round to Halfords and they put on very good deals for fire extinguishers for a time to try and get the public to buy one.
