just realized how wild it is you can be liable for the cost of an ambulance somebody else calls for you (hexbear.net)

Like you're presumably unconscious and at no point ever consent to be liable for the cost, and yet people get billed. It's like if someone just came and did a bunch of work on your house when you were asleep and then sent you a bill.

Like, just wack. It's like if you passed out in Walmart and an employee put a cell phone in your pocket, took your money, then gave you a receipt, and people were like "hmm yes that's legit"

i crashed my car when i was young and dumb, and my friends being good people called the ambulance.

that little ambulance ride ended up costing something like $800 to go like 2 miles.. the charge was so high because my friends didn't know where we were and the ambulance drove around for almost 2 hours looking for us apparently
