Er, and, most folks arrive by car. I'm pretty sure ambulance arrivals are a tiny percentage of their overall business.

Opinion based on a. Being alive and b. Paying accident claims for 5+ years.

Even with accidents, most claims did not involve an ambulance bill. In one memorable claim, a gunshot victim drove himself to the ER with multiple bullet wounds while bleeding profusely.
