Question 8228

In an accident with seriously injured people, if help has not been organized and police officers have not arrived at the scene, are you required to help?

  1. No, even if you are involved in the accident.
  2. Yes, but only if you are involved in the accident.
  3. Yes, whether or not you are involved in the accident.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, whether or not you are involved in the accident.

Yes, whether or not you are involved. If people are seriously injured, no one is helping them yet, and officers have not arrived, you must help them or call for help. Witnesses are only exempt when their help is clearly not needed or officers are already there. In the image, a woman is helping the fallen motorcyclist.
