It is also a cautionary tale that people should carry ID, and copy of insurance card, to ensure medical care.

Some years ago this happened here in MA.

A man went jogging on a Friday evening,was struck and killed by a car,and wasn’t missed until Monday when he didn’t show up for work.

You get emergency medical care without having an id.

Not just access to medical care. For the sake of your next of kin.

One of my grandmother’s cousins went to the corner store for a pack of cigs. In a fairly decent sized city. No ID. Didn’t tell family he was leaving as it was just a short 2 or 3 block walk. Dropped dead in the convenience store. Family searched 2 or 3 days before they finally found him at the coroners. Very traumatic for them.
