Both my high-school age daughters drive. We live in a rural location w/o public or school transportation available and they drive together to school and back. Every time they leave I feel anxious. I could drive them back and forth daily, but I choose to encourage them to drive. My reasoning? By the time they head out to college and on their own, they will have years of driving experience under their belt. They will have dealt with the traffic, bad weather, and many many bad drivers out there. It’s a risk, but now, since they live with me, they will always have my cautions and warnings fresh in their ears as they come and go.

    I would have nightmares about drowning in my truck. Now I know I have a way to get me and my children out. After being swept away in a flash flood and my car sinking, I’ve had panic attacks going over bridges etc. This gives me peace of mind and truly works. Thank You!!

    Really great tool. Seriously, this is a must have for all motorists, because you might need it tomorrow. The seatbelt cutter is very sharp, and the glass breaker works great. It’s hard to spring it on accident, so there’s little chance of hurting yourself. Even if you press hard and do spring it on your thumb, it’ll only bruise for a day (just don’t mess around). Really, it’s hard to hurt yourself. This tool stays on it’s clip, doesn’t come off unless you yank it off. Doesn’t really require much effort, just deliberate motion. Seriously, get this now. I’m 15, and here I am with a resqme. Never know when you’ll need it, and it’s a great product.

Frequently asked questions

The resqme® tool is effective only against clear and tinted tempered glass. Tempered glass is commonly used in rear and side car windows. The resqme® tool does NOT work on laminated glass. Laminated windows which are typically used for windshields can also be found on some car models. To check to see what your side windows are made of, locate the sticker on your side windows to see if it is designated as “Tempered” glass. If you are unable to locate the sticker or the information is not understandable, please call your car manufacturer. You can find a list of some vehicles equipped with laminated windows in the US at: http://www.epgaa.com/applications/index.asp. This list is not comprehensive so we recommend contacting your car manufacturer directly.
Most sunroofs and rear windows are tempered. To figure out what kind of glass is in the side window of your car, you can look in the bottom corner. There may be a label that says “tempered” or “laminated.” If not, roll down the window and look at it from a bird’s-eye view. If it’s smooth and looks like one piece, it’s tempered. If it looks like a sandwich with a ridge, it’s laminated.
Yes. The spring-loaded spike resets automatically and can be used multiple times. The blade is very durable and can easily perform multiple seat belt cuts.
If you’re going to test the window breaker on a car glass window, be sure to wear safety gloves and goggles. Alternatively, you can test the window breaker on a hard surface like a notepad or a piece of wood. When the spring-loaded spike is released, you will hear a “click.” After you lift up the tool again, another spring resets the spike so you can use it again. You will see a small dent where the tip of the spike met the testing surface. The seatbelt cutter blade is very sharp and will easily cut through seatbelts. Hold the seatbelt tape taut and pull the tool toward you, cutting it diagonally.
The resqme® tool is designed this way. When not in use, the spike is not aligned with the hole. When you push the head of the resqme tool against a window or hard surface to activate the window breaker, an internal plastic shoulder centers the spike and the spring propels it forward and through the hole.
The resqme® tool will not accidentally deploy and cannot be triggered while you carry it on your keychain, pocket, or bag. In order to release the spring-loaded spike, 12 pounds of force needs to be intentionally applied to the tool. Do not press the head of the tool against your fingers to test it. With enough force, the spike will release and likely cause physical injury.
The TSA has not evaluated the resqme® tool nor listed it on the forbidden items list. Due to its size and design, it does not show up in X-rays. However, considering it contains a blade, we recommend you pack the resqme® tool in your checked luggage to avoid the risk of confiscation.

Warranty

Your purchase includes a 1 year product warranty. Attempting to use resqme® on any material besides tempered glass such as metal, laminated glass, etc. will void the warranty. Improper use of the resqme®, including using excessive force to pull down and release the tool, causing the clip guard to break, will void the warranty.

Warning

resqme® is designed solely for use in vehicular emergency situations and must not be used for any purpose other than rescue. Does not work on windshields. Only for tempered glass.
