    D) Immediately remove the patient to a safe distance from the vehicle and call for additional support.

    Explanation:

    The best option in this situation is to move the patient to a safe distance from the vehicle and call for additional support.

    This is because the leaking gasoline has made the location unsafe and since the coalition is still fresh the engine is still hot and these can cause a fire outbreak
