When he hit the wall, he took the steering wheel to the chest, which defibrillated him and he came back around.

Wow, Doctor... I had no idea that Honda made defibrillators. What will they think of next?

Maybe all the hybrid cars could double as AEDs. You turn the key and you hear, "ANALYZING NOW."

No kidding. THis was before the era of airbags, of course. I'm not sure an airbag would do the job.

Good advice. I was taken to the ER by ambulance for premature atrial contractions which I mistakenly believed were symptoms of a heart attack. The second time, after getting a bill for $2,000, I drove myself. That was a mistake. I had to wait an hour before seeing a nurse. If it's important call an ambulance.
