From what I've heard, a speeding car turned over and hit a passerby waiting at the traffic lights. The unfortunate guy had his leg severed above the knee and was bleeding heavily. There were plenty of people around but nobody did anything whatsoever to help. Somebody was actually heard saying he didn't want to get his clothes dirty. It was not until the ambulance arrived some 10 minutes later that the victim was finally given first aid. Hard to understand but goes to show what our society is like nowadays.


A Litigious one I'm afraid.

If the injury was servere such as femoral arterial bleed and the bleed had already left a couple of pints of blood of the roadside do you risk applying a tourniquet then getting potentially sued for saving a life but losing a leg. Dead people can't sue you for just being a witness to their own demise.
