It's probably much quicker to transport a person from your home yourself than to wait for an ambulance in cases where you can do so safely. Especially in cases where time is of the essence. Of course, there are injuries (e.g., neck) where it's better to have trained people move the victim. As to the original posting, I too would run a self-appointed "enforcer" off the road in an *extreme* emergency if there were no alternatives. Doug Williams rduxb!daw1
