911, please hold...

We saw many things en route to Bobo, but the most unforgettable sight was a woman lying on the road, pools bleeding from her head and unconscious from a moto accident that had just occurred. People broke of branches from bushes and waved a warning to upcoming vehicles much like we do in America with cones and road flares. Unlike America, however, there was no ambulance to call, no hospital nearby, and even the closest one would not likely have the advanced treatment options we have in the US. Though I have thus far been fortunate not to have ever needed the services of 911, I am comforted to know that resource is available.
