These days if you give first aid I understand that you can be held
liable.....

A plague on the compensation culture.

I did a law unit at college last year and this subject came up with our
lecturer giving the example of a road crash saying that I would be under
no obligation to help the injured person but if I did help them and made
their situation worse i.e paralysed them, then they would be perfectly
entitled to sue me even though I was only genuinely just trying to help.

As pointed out, with us becoming a more US style sue culture, if you do
meet someone dying then you have to consider your own position rather
than just automatically helping them which is a really sad indicator of
today's society.
