Once again, a prime example has occurred that goes back to a person involved in this incident will only have what they carried at the time of the accident. And there is no rhyme or reason of when one might need their EDC.
I can see where a Buck 110 lock blade and my charged cellphone would have been useful, but the lighter, cigarettes, and pocket watch would not have been of much use.
