Question 8209

In a traffic accident there are people with very serious injuries and you do not know how to help them. What must you do?

  1. Take the injured to the hospital in my car.
  2. Nothing, and keep driving.
  3. Not touch them, and call 112.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Not touch them, and call 112.

If people have very serious injuries and you do not know how to care for them, do not touch them, because you could make their injuries worse, and call 112. The operator will tell you what to do. Leaving without helping can be a crime, and taking them in your car can make their condition worse.
