The example you give is one that is definitely not in need of a Fire Crew call out, so i'm not entirely sure why you thought it relevant.
U ok hun?
I've had the misfortune of crashing head on into a bus on a rural road. I can confirm that no fire crews were required and everyone walked away uninjured. The only assistance required for both vehicles was a recovery vehicle.
Down to improvements made to car safety. But there's still some old cars on the roads. The braking distances in the driving test are based on a Ford Anglia with drum brakes but they don't seem to be interested in updating it. You either cater for the average or the lowest common denominator.
My crash was about 20 years ago in an R reg Renault clio. The air bag did its job and kept me safe. Unfortunately the car didn't make it and was written off.
