These Private Ambulances Race to the Accident Scene to Get Paid First

In America, while we don’t have universal healthcare, our country has its act together when it comes to professionalism and uniformity in medical care, for the most part.

With that in mind, not all countries are like that and thus they might just run into issues that we don’t necessarily have here in the states. This is the perfect example.

If what the uploader of this video is telling us is accurate, the ambulances in South Africa are privately owned and must compete for business in order to get the profit. In other words, the task of getting to the scene of an emergency and picking up that injured person can turn into a competition.

This time, the competition is apparent as this pair of ambulances races to the scene with one cutting off another to ensure that they get there first to secure the payday. Check out the video below and tell us what you think of how this process works. From what we understand, the driver of the first ambulance has been suspended.
