Are prison-vans quite simply death traps in the event of a serious accident?

Never gave it a thought as the welfare of criminals is not high on my list if priorities

Probably, I think there was an episode of Grey's Anatomy or some kind of medical show where that happened...but is it necessarily a bad thing?

I'd prefer paedophiles and murderers to be dead than living off my taxes in prison with all the luxuries, like playstations and whatever!

to put it mildly yes those horse box type with the metal boothes are a real death threat.

Who gives a damn? It's entirely down to you whether or not you get a ride in one, after all....


shufly
Now thats a cheap way to get rid of them.


Trust Me
Frightening aren't they?
And to the other answers, there are all sorts of reasons why you could be in one of those vans.
You get locked up for the night for breach of peace for example, and get transported to the court in the morning, locked in a box in a police van.

I got taken to court in one after spending the night in the cells. You barely have room to move in the tiny cubicles they have so it would be pretty scary if there was a bad accident if you ended up trapped in one.
