They had to drive the car remotely, right? That wouldn't have 10% of the finesse of a human in the front seat with a hydraulic brake pedal. But I wasn't there so just speculation.

What surprises me is that people didn't lift the car off her. 3-4 adults should be able to lift even an EV a few inches.

Just removing the object crushing a person could result in their death. You need medical professionals on hand to ensure that removing the object doesn't lead to untreated issues.
