All of the following are accepted emergency drags except one. Which of the following is not an accepted emergency drag?
  1. Clothes drag
  2. Foot drag
  3. Shoulder drag
  4. Firefighter’s drag
  5. Hip drag
Explanation
Answer: E - All of the choices above are accepted emergency drags except the hip drag. All of the four accepted drags except the foot drag are “head-first” drags, which allow the body’s limbs to fall into their natural position. Also, the drags are in a direction along the midline or axis of the body, which keeps the spine and neck better aligned (in case of neck or spine injury).
