"Is the cost of a taxi less than the cost of a GP visit?"
I would hope so!
At least here in the US medical doctors get a LOT more per hour of their time than taxi drivers do. And the time would be the same --- taxi from patient's hosue to doctor's office, wait during visit, drive back vs doctor driving form office to house, doing visit, driving back.

It became clearer later when the patient got to the drop in centre that her condition was too serious for there and an ambulance was needed.But no ambulances were available for more than an hour.So.Yes you got it a taxi was called and the patient was taken six miles to hospital.The time frame for all of this was six hours.The reason given for the lack of ambulance was they were all tied up at the match dealing with injuries.I have searched all the Liverpool and Merseyside news outlets and can find nothing re mass ambulances at any Merseyside football games.But as i began i may have missed it.Correct me if i'm wrong.
