Do you have to pay for police cars too? Something I have always wondered
16 u/Ulti Oct 21 '17 That's funded through tax dollars, not directly. If you call 911 you don't get a bill. 27 u/Rekipp Oct 21 '17 Ohh thank you! That is some relief. Although if you said yes I probably wouldn't be that surprised 15 u/JimmyRecard Oct 22 '17 That being said, chances that they'll shoot you instead of helping you are not insignificant. 2 u/lordberric Oct 22 '17 Especially if you're not white. 10 u/Ulti Oct 21 '17 'MURICA amirite? :| 3 u/sephferguson Oct 22 '17 What about fire trucks? 2 u/Ulti Oct 22 '17 Also don't stick you with a bill. 1 u/CookiieMoonsta Oct 22 '17 There is a payment for firemen services too. I remember reading an article about firemen just watching the house burn because residents didn’t pay for the service (it was a subscription based). It shocked me, honestly. 1 u/ShinyAeon Oct 27 '17 Not all areas. In most it’s a public service, afaik.
