Hospital

Like it or hate it, and there are a number of both, my question is why does McClain/Willis at the end while sitting in the ambulance with his daughter tell the EMT, "Hospital"? Where else would the driver go?! Was this added for comic value? Or to show McClain's ever vigilant attempt to control all situations? Other than that, the movie, barring a few distractions, was what we look for in today's cinema: escapism.
