"Don't they charge about $3,000 per ambulance in USA? There, you literally get people half-dying and yet begging others not to call an ambulance for them."

"Japan is still a safe country?"

Let's just say this. In 2021 Japan as a whole had 285 homicides. The US city I live in, Columbus OH, had in 2021, 204 homicides. Compared to Columbus OH, I'd say Japan is safe. I only wish the US had a comparable homicide rate as Japan.
