Long story short: When the body goes into systemic shock, it will vasoconstrict to pull all the blood to the vital organs, so your heart could still be beating but not have the pressure/volume to be able to detect a pulse.
Whatever can move the most people the safest and the fastest. Would love some great mass transit.
