Talk:Duty to rescue
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
See also the Disaster management WikiProject
The reference to Seinfeld confuses the issue because it is a fictional law. Duty to rescue bystanders does not exist in the US. Good Samaritan Law's protect people that attempt to rescue, and then bind people with a duty to rescue once they have started (see the Good Samaritan Law page). I would say it should be removed entirely.. - matthavener —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.110.241.254 (talk • contribs) 16:12, February 13, 2007
[edit] Anglo-Saxon centric
This article should be re-written as in some jurdistictions, e.g. France, there is a legal Duty to rescue, there being a charge of "failing to give aid". KTo288 (talk) 23:00, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Criminal, civil, and citations
Parts of this page are confusing, parts were just plain wrong, and none of it is cited. It needs work. Hopefully I'll find some time to research and contribute. Travisl (talk) 16:42, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
