      Well at the point where the ambulance got blocked it obviously wasn’t fatal yet.

      Unless the patient’s head has come off, wouldn’t the ambulance be the one to establish whether they were dead or not?

      You normally can’t do that in the moment.

      The patient was already in the ambulance and died because they got blocked heading to the hospital.

        You don’t know if he died because of that. But I certainly didn’t improve the odds.
