So what happens if they pick up some guy who's trying to rush to the hospital cuz his wife got hit by a car or something. Do they play cash cab on the way over or do they just sit there in awkward silence while they drive him over? >_>

Im not a fan on the hour format. Its just lead to more dead air where he asks a question, they go to commercial, and when they come back he asks the question again. I prefer the faster pace of the half hour episodes.

i cant answer this myself but for those interested its available on Hulu. Thats where Ive seen it and why I think the commercial cuts stick out so much.

Why would some guy get a cab when he could just get an ambulance?

I always enjoyed Cash Cab. I knew a guy that was on the Toronto edition. If I recall correctly his group won $600 or something like that.

Is this a real question?

As far as I know Cash Cab is Canadian and Ambulances don't cost people their life savings in Canada.

Cabs dont offer any medical assistance and it is ill advised to move a victim of being hit by a car without properly understanding the extent of their injuries.

It's not "still" going, it's going again. It got cancelled years ago and they picked it up again recently. Which... is good, because Ben was going nowhere with his standup.

It's likely semi-fixed. Likely it's not as random as it seems so something like that won't happen.
