Then he gets a 100k hospital bill later.
Only 75k since he didn't have to take an ambulance
Long-term, I honestly don’t know whether this is the cheaper option. DUIs make insurance pricy.
Still not in jail.
In the states.
Anywhere else the cop would ask why tf didn't you just take an ambulance like a normal person
In America it’s not surprising to drive while stabbed!
Can we start doing the Russia jokes but American.
In Democratic America school finishes you.
In Capitalists America the ambulance service rides you
In Capitalists America you aid the health care
Maybe not so much the last one? I'd say in other countries with free healthcare "we" would aid health care through taxes. I get your joke though haha.
Do people in the states pay taxes to health care?
"I fled"
Hey I'll have you know that in Australia an ambulance can cost >$1000 without insurance!
The problem is so serious that they run seminars in schools telling students to not hesitate calling for ambulances, because human lives are worth more than $1000.

Fair enough. I'm pretty sure it costs something where I live, but everything else would be free.
You're also not legally required to pay medical bills in the states.
I'm not from there, but I guess you'd have to give fake information?
Nope you have to give your real info. But the worst they can do is send debt collectors after you, which you can easily ignore.
Doesn't it affect your credit score or something? I would think there would be some repercussions? Interest on the amount you owe?
You can just ignore hospital bills, and they can't refuse treatment if you don't pay.
So don't worry about it; throw the bills in the trash, block the debt collectors' numbers, and carry on with your life. I have been doing this for over 30 years now.
