Would you call 911 for help?

You cut your hand and know you need stitches but you've been drinking and know you can't drive.

None of your family or close neighbors are home.

    I would. You wouldn't want to lose any function of the hand or risk infection.

    While it might dpend largely on the circumstances, IE: I cut my hand while preparing a meal or involved in a bar fight I'd still call 911, and sort out the details later.

    Just pour a little hydrogen peroxide on it to kill the germs and put a few bandaids on it. It will heal up. But if it's really bad and I can't drive then I would just run to the doctors office building right across the street.

    No, I'd wrap my hand in a towel or pillow case, then I'd call a taxi.
