That’s great for the woman under that car. Hopefully, this officer was able to do this kind of hoisting without messing his back up too much. He didn’t have many other choices.
To wait for a backup could have been fatal for the woman and traumatic for her child.
I remember reading about someone inventing a Lift Bag that could be hooked up to the exhaust pipe of a car.
The Lift Bag would be placed under the car and the car exhaust would fill the bag raising the car, off the woman in this case.
I realize that it would not make sense to have one of these lift bags in every police car but is a possible solution.
If memory serves, the devise from out of the trunk could lift a car in less than 5 minutes.
I hope he didnt cause himself physical problems. Prayers up for him as well.
