At the scene of an MVC, you must remove an injured child from his car seat and fully immobilize him prior to transport to the hospital. What statement made by the lead EMT indicates that this procedure is being performed correctly?
 
  A) Let's carefully lift the baby from the car seat, immobilizing her neck, and carefully place her on the long board.
  B) As we place the patient on the long board, we will need to insert a towel under her neck to prevent flexion of the head.
  C) Before we slide her feet first from the car seat onto the long board, we will need to apply an infant cervical collar.
  D) To get her on the long board, let's tilt the car seat backwards, and carefully slide her out headfirst.

Question 2

An EMT asks you how he can decrease the chances of being involved in a collision when driving with lights and siren at night. Your advice would be:
 
  A) It is safer to use your high beams with the lights and siren, so that oncoming cars can see you better.
  B) If blinded by the lights of an oncoming car, look to the right side of the road and not at the car.
  C) Flashing your high beams on and off when approaching another vehicle is a good way to alert him to your presence.
  D) Keep all lights on your dashboard to the highest setting so that you can easily see the speedometer to monitor your speed.
