evacuation egress

Occupants getting themselves out of the vehicle and away from the crash scene after a collision: opening or forcing doors, escaping a submerged, rolled, or burning vehicle, egress time, and entrapment that prevents escape. The focus is the physical act of exiting to safety. Unlike secondary_collisions (additional vehicle impacts after the first) and post_crash_care_delays (how long until EMS arrives), this is the occupants' own escape; unlike driver_post_crash_behavior, it is leaving the vehicle, not subsequent decisions or actions.
