If ya think someone critical transported in vehicle pulling up to an ER entrance, is going to be sent to the waiting room, I don’t know what to say to you.

It depends on the emergency and where you are. I saw someone with multiple fractures from a motorcycle accident have to wait. If you have chest pains and shortness of breath you’re going to be seen quickly, but not as fast as someone arriving with the paramedics. Plus, the paramedics can run an EKG, and maybe administer life saving drugs or shocks if necessary. Like you said, it’s a judgement call. A person should be familiar with their hospitals and their rules.
