It then set the tree on fire.

    Driving behind me was a young man, who I later found out was called Jared. He saw the accident occur and stopped to help me out of the burning car. He put his own life in danger when he got into the back seat to try to undo my seat belt.

    With my seat belt undone, Jared then hit open the driver's window to drag me out as I had still not regained consciousness (意识). He bravely did this while my car and the tree were burning.

I eventually woke up a day later.
