resqme_partsWe have several ResQMe utility tools to give away.

The ResQMe is a simple, compact and easy to use device for escaping from a vehicle. I have personally used a ResQMe for gaining entry into vehicles when vehicle doors are jammed and the occupants are entrapped and unconscious.

The window punch spike easily shatters tempered glass on the side windows of a vehicle. As with other safety devices, the ResQMe also has a safety belt/restraint cutter built in. I never have had to use the blade, but I can attest to the window spike/punch performing as advertised.

Below is a brief video of the window punch in action.



ResQMe PunchThe LifeHammer is the older cousin of ResQMe. Both devices punch through the side windows and slice through an uncooperative seat restraint, but the ResQMe is smaller and can attach to a key ring or any place with a zip tie.

There are similar tools on the market, but the ResQMe is compact, reusable and attaches anywhere.

The ResQMe is a simple and easy to use device that can be secured on every emergency vehicle in your fleet and put in every one of your household vehicles. As with any device, ensure that everyone in your department/family knows where the rescue utility is located and how to use it.


We have several (new) ResQMe devices to give away - please complete the form (expires July 31, 2010) and we will mail the tools to the winners.

If you don’t win one from us, they are also available on Amazon.com (two pack).

Traffic & highway safety is a major concern of all motorists, law enforcement, and insurance companies. New technologies are slowly introduced to the motoring public. Many motorists are slow to adapt (or become confused) by new systems and signs, despite the intended usefulness. Traffic lights with count-down timers can be either be informative, or encourage speed contests. Traffic Light Count Down
