1. Emergency hammer

An emergency hammer (also known as a safety hammer or escape hammer) is a small, handheld safety tool designed to help passengers escape a vehicle quickly in the event of an emergency, such as a crash, fire, or submersion in water. An emergency hammer is a life-saving tool that lets you escape quickly from a vehicle when traditional exits fail—simple, cheap, and crucial in the right moment.

• Specifically designed to shatter side windows, which may be difficult to open or break by hand.
• Often has a hardened steel tip to focus impact force.
• Includes a built-in blade (protected for safety) to slice through jammed or locked seatbelts.
