U.S. Law / U.K. Law...
Well, I'm not an attorney. It seems in the U.S. people sue at the drop of a hat... it's really ridiculous. However, I'll give you an example of what prompted my post above. A retired EMS worker was driving along and noticed an accident in front of him. The EMS worker had one of those little blue medical cadeuses stickers on his bumper.
Anyway, as he passed the accident scene he could tell that somebody was hurt. However, he felt his skills weren't quite up to the task since he had been out of the healthcare game... even though his certification was still current. So, he called dispatch from his cell phone to send an ambulance and kept driving.
The injured party sued AND WON a lawsuit against the retired EMS worker. Why? The retired EMS guy showed "intent" when he put his foot on the brake and he had a medical insignia on his bumper... showing that he was trained in the field and did nothing (he was sued for abandonment). If he had driven by without putting his foot on the brake, he would have been okay.
My point is, the issue has been raised in a very public way and something needs to be done. I don't know about U.K. law, and I'm sure FL will set me straight, but I'd be worried about covering you own tail at this point. People can be really petty at times... especially when they are angry or hurt. I guess it's a mute point, as 902 already indicated he was going to do what he thought was the right thing (most of us are in agreement).
