I can almost hear Mr T from the A Team....''yo on y'own sukka''

Can't blame the survival instinct.
Back in the '60s a college lecturer told us, in the event of a fire, follow me if you can keep up!
Stood me in good stead in the only event I had to put it into practise. Fortunately no-one got hurt, but it meant I was (nearly) always the first one out to have a smoke!

Lucky the car hadn't gone another 30 yards or so.
You can't really blame the guy doing the runner. One big landslide doesn't guarantee that there won't be another one at any moment.

Why were the hazzard warning lights on before the incident?

If it were, and they were the bloke's kids, we wouldn't think much of him would we? But when there's a perceived very immediate threat to life, instinct and reflex take over in the short term. Perhaps he went back to help after the end of the very short clip... It did look as if the others in the car were having difficulty getting out. They probably needed to be helped.

On one occasion when I was a passenger in a Sea King helicopter I was sat behind the pilot facing inwards, he explained that my emergency escape route was to grab the back of his seat, pivot around my hand and exit through his window. I was not to be concerned about him being in the way as he would be long gone.

"What steps should you take in the event of a fire?"
