and demolished due to safety concerns. The lot became dedicated green space. Injuries Of the 142 people on board, 2 passengers sustained serious injuries; 41 passengers and the captain sustained minor injuries; and 94 passengers, 3 flight attendants, and the first officer sustained no injuries. The airplane sustained extensive exterior damage and some internal damage to the passenger cabin. The 737 struck a vehicle on Hollywood Way, pinning the vehicle's hood under the aircraft. However, the vehicle's two occupants (the driver and her four-year-old daughter) were not injured. No other ground injuries were reported. During the accident sequence, the forward service door (1R) escape slide inflated inside the airplane; the nose gear collapsed; and the forward dual flight attendant jumpseat, which was occupied by two flight attendants, partially collapsed. The inflated escape slide blocked both forward doors from being used to evacuate the aircraft, and prevented two flight attendants seated on the forward jumpseat from assisting the evacuation. There was no fire, but had there been a fire, this malfunctioning slide would have dramatically affected the survivability of the occupants. As a result of this occurrence, the NTSB issued a safety recommendation to replace the slide cover latch brackets on forward slide compartments of all older Boeing 737 models with the latch brackets installed on later models. Subsequent safety measures As with runway 4R/22L at the Little Rock National Airport, site of the American Airlines Flight 1420 overrun accident, runway 8/26 in Burbank was exempt from the runway safety area standard. The NTSB cited this accident in a recommendation for installing the engineered materials arrestor system (EMAS) at airports where it is not feasible to establish the runway safety area (RSA). A US $4,000,000 EMAS was subsequently installed as a result of this accident at Burbank airport. On Friday, October 13, 2006, the Burbank EMAS stopped a private jet with no injuries or aircraft damage. On December 6, 2018, it stopped a Southwest 737-700 (N752SW), with 117 people on board. There were no injuries and no damage to the aircraft. Dispute with city of Burbank Burbank city officials demanded that Southwest Airlines pay their $40,000 bill for services, including overtime for police officers and firefighters, related to the March 5, 2000, accident. Southwest refused to pay stating that the airline is entitled to emergency services since it pays taxes to the city. See also Engineered materials arrestor system Ground effect
