Interesting. Tesla seems like a lot more cumbersome vehicle to perform dash evolution/extrication due to the presence of the high voltage battery.

for example, in a traditional vehicle, a dashbeam blowout is performed using a higher speed ram. Without this, you have to make 3-4 more cuts to the vehicle

Tesla model access for the rocker channel is also inconsistent and a little scary. Rocker cuts made to the X for example seem to be permitted, however in the model S they might be lethal. I really wish they had more in the series on this.

disclosure: I was a volunteer firefighter for a few years after highschool.
