good pic...hope the driver got out. when upside down like that you can actually get trapped by your own wieght keeping the seat belt buckle from unlatching. you should always have a knife handy to cut the belt, the knife has to be secured with velcro or something for easy access when you are upside down. some auto part store do sell a special knife just for this purpose which can be taped to your dash.
