It’s difficult to judge this in a vacuum. On one hand, toxic emissions. On the other hand, someone who can drive to the hospital in an emergency.

Why would you judge in a vacuum? There's statistics, and traffic fatalities is (one of) the most dangerous thing (for young people). That's cars.

There's 112 and ambulanses if you need to a hospital urgently. Everyone doesn't need a spare "what if my neighbor gets a heart attack" rush to the hospital car at home

Once every 10,000 trips, one drives to the hospital in an emergency.
