Ends
I was passenger in the van. After we collided the van landed on its side i immediatley released my seatbelt and released my work colleagues seat belt as she was trapped by the belt. The drivers door was jammed shut so i thought the only way was through the windscreen. I started kicking the windscreen but it was hard to break. So i took the key out of the ignition snd used the key in my hand to punch the glass then the glass cracked and i started using my fist to punch the glass and i made a small hole then using my foot i kicked through the glass and made a hole big enough to climb out. I climbed out then my work colleague followed. I then went to the car and tried opening the door .. The lady was very dazed. Thankfully other road users were there to help. I suffered cuts to my hands and bruised ribs. My colleague injured her knee. Thank you to all the emergency services that night
