Mercedes-Benz has created a way of cutting the time it takes to extract the occupants of a car at the scene of a crash - through a set of stickers called Rescue Assist. The stickers are part of a programme being introduced to the UK for the first time.They're mounted inside the fuel filler cap and on the opposing door aperture and feature quick response (QR) codes, designed to be read by any enabled smartphone or tablet. Contained within the QR code is the key information needed by the emergency services to quickly, safely and efficiently extract the occupants without endangering either the individuals involved in the incident or those responsible for their rescue.
