Emergency Room wait time?

We have billboards all over the place that show a digital clock and the hospital saying "The waiting time in our ER is 3:20 minutes/seconds" And the time is supposed to be updated through out the day depending on how busy they are. I'm sure every major city has the same thing.

I gotta call BULL**** on this. I don't believe there is anyone sitting at the hospital updating these billboards or that they are somehow automatically updated via a data line to the hospital.

And when was the last time you were speeding to the hospital and decided on the hospital you were headed to because of a billboard?

OK, I'm glad to get that off my chest! Thank you.
