Shot or Stabbed? Call An Uber, Not an EMT…

If you're in California or Canada, said stabber has already called the cops on you for not using Zer's proper pronouns.

But that's no matter. You have only one thing on your mind right now — getting medical attention.

The whisky has made your blood thinner than liquid silk, you need to think quick or you'll bleed out like a stuck pig.

Your first instinct is to call 911.

Your other option? Uber.

You flick the app open and call the damn Uber. He's only two minutes away, after all. His name is Dave. Dave's not happy to see you when he pulls up, but he takes you to the ER anyway.

Wait. What?! Are you nuts?!

Maybe not.

...

Victims of gunshots and stabbings are 62% less likely to die when transported privately.

Well I'd probably not recommend it since Uber cars don't have the necessary equipment for response to emergencies. Though I think this highlighted the fact that every minute counts for the injured.

In my country though, despite the Uber probably coming earlier, the traffic is horrible that I'd probably choose a few minute delay waiting for the EMT. If I'm gonna be stuck on the road for an hour, I'd rather have life support.
