“go by ambulance”
Way too expensive and way too slow if one only lives a couple of miles from the Hospital
actually I think it probably depends on where you live. I live in metro boston, hospitals are very close by, ambulances get there in literally a couple of minutes, and because of that, you don’t see people driving someone to the hospital.
Of course it took me 24 hr to convince the ER staff that my appendix needed to be removed (including getting a ride back home to get a good night's sleep before fighting the good fight the next day)..
