Question 3852
If you witness an accident in which you are not involved, but your assistance is clearly needed, must you stop?
- No, you must continue driving.
- Yes, you must always stop and assist.
- Only if it occurs outside a built-up area and there is no SOS post nearby.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes, you must always stop and assist.
Yes. If you see an accident you are not involved in and your help is needed, you must stop to provide or call for help and cooperate. You are released from this duty when it is clear that you are not needed or when officers are already there. It makes no difference whether it happens in a built-up area or there is an SOS post nearby.
