Help or just Stand and Watch..
A man was hit by a car in front of you, You know CPR and First Aid. No Doctor or any other people but you, the driver and the fallen man. What would you do? Would you just stand there or walk away ? Or would you rush over to see what you can do?

During my summer vacation way back 2005, I was going to a hospital when I suddenly heard a big bump, I was nervous annd I was about to freak out when I saw 2 young men bathing on their own blood, the one had a big cut on his head and the other had an open skin, yeah! he have a very big wound. It's really scary and I was really trembling. Since then whenever I get a chance to pass by that road. I always have this goosebumps all-over me, whenever i reminisce the accident.

If possible, I would definitely help but I would try to ask the driver as well to help the wounded man. Since I know first aid, I could ask him to contact emergency personnel. Although that may be a risk (since the driver may think of just getting away since this is his/her chance), I may need to check if the wounded man can be stabilized so I could help in looking for assistance.
If all else fails, I'll ask the driver to bring us to the hospital immediately so that the man can be given immediate medical attention.

I would absolutely stop and help out in any way that I could, and could never consider doing otherwise. I have stopped at accident sites before, but even though I know first aid and would offer help, there was usually someone more experienced on hand already that would take control of the situation.
I know a lot of people today don't like to 'get involved', and I just can't comprehend that.
