A Matter of Policy
911 Emergency!What is the nature of your emergency?
I have fallen and I can't get up!
What is your insurance plan?
I have it in my purse, but I can't reach it!
Then we can't help you until you can. Have a nice day.
Sudden crash on highway 22 at 7th Street!
Somebody call Emergency Medic Response!
Emergency Medic Response Team!
Accident, blood everywhere, broken bones, help!
Come quick!
Is the person or persons breathing?
Hunh? Uh, barely!
What are their insurance plans?
How should I know? I am just a witness.
Well, call us back when you have the insurance information.
Drive carefully and have a nice day.
FIRE! HELP! FIRE!
Fire Department! What is the nature of your emergency?
FIRE! IT'S A FIRE! I'M BURNING AND I CAN'T GET OUT!!!
Do you have your insurance card with you?
Yes! Yes! They are here in my pants pocket, but pants are on fire
and I am sure I will need Parts A, B, and C.
I need the numbers before I can dispatch any emergency vehicles, you know.
Stay cool and have a nice day, Sir. Call us when you have the numbers.
LOOK! A JUMPER ON THAT BUILDING ROOF TOP!
Hey! Don't jump! It's not worth it!
I have to! Life is not worth living! [He jumps.]
By the way, fella – before you hit the ground
—what is your insurance n u m b e r ?
S P PP LLLL AAAA TTT!!!
uh, – er, never mind.
