One of the reactions many people had in the aftermath of last week's mutli-vehicle crash on Route 17 in Binghamton was that it's amazing no one was killed.



Well, those thoughts are reinforced after this video of the crash posted by Binghamton Mayor Rich David on Facebook. The video shows bystanders eventually racing to the burning car to remove a woman inside. David says authorities are trying to identify them so that they can receive proper recognition.



In the post, David says:

Dramatic dash camera video of last week's 10-vehicle pileup on Route 17 in the City of Binghamton. It captures the chilling first moments of the crash and the actions of bystanders who pulled a woman from a burning vehicle. In a time of crisis, these brave individuals navigated through flames and broken glass to save a stranger's life. The woman suffered only minor cuts and bruises. Miraculously, the crash resulted in no fatalities. We're still attempting to identify those seen on video so they can be recognized for their efforts. On behalf of our entire community, I commend these unsung heroes as well as our local police, fire and EMS first responders. Binghamton is safer because of you.
