Agreed. And hopefully the seat was pushed down like that in order to get the driver out...

Anyone knowledgable on extraction from wrecks?

cant see any photo is it gone? So i dont have any idea, just guessing!
As a member of a rescue organisation we often have to 'pop' doors open and even remove them (entire door) from time to time. Sometimes just Removeing the door gives enough room to get a patient out from vehicle. With more seroius accidents more work may be required, But this the ambos call if they want door off - door comes off. If they want door off & B pillar removed - it happens, no questions asked!
With any MVA there is the risk of spinal injuries, and if it was on the freeway it probably would have been high speed so I'm guessing that the patient would not have been in a good way.
At any MVA you treat for the worst (and hope for the best) so Ambos would probably have been treating for serious spinal injuries and other serious injuries (even if there weren't any) so any movement of the patient would have been minimal this is why the B pillar may have been cut out.

Doing so would have enable rescue crews to get a spine board in between the patient and the seat with enough room to position patient on to it, and allow enough room for rescuers to manuver themselvs around to move the patient onto the board and then onto a waiting strecher then ambulance/helicopter. All while not moving them too much and keeping drips and monitors etc etc...still attached.

Positioning a patient on a spine board is not easy and getting them onto a strecher with minimal body movement requires many hands working together this is why there needs to be as much room to move as posible, to prevent any further injury.
