Explanation
If you are involved in a crash and someone is injured, do NOT move the victim unless there is immediate danger - such as a fire or another life-threatening situation. If you must move the person for safety, keep their back and neck as straight as possible. Slide your arms under their back, support the neck with your arms, and pull them head-first away from danger by holding onto their clothing. This helps reduce the risk of further injury, especially to the spine.
