It's heartbreaking to acknowledge, but many in India hesitate to help accident victims due to fear of legal hassles and time-consuming police procedures. The societal stigma attached to being a good Samaritan is also discouraging, as people worry about getting entangled in the victim's issues. Sadly, lack of basic first aid knowledge is another factor limiting immediate assistance. The bystander effect, a psychological phenomenon where individuals are less likely to offer help to a victim when others are present, is also at play. To overcome this, it's crucial to spread awareness about Good Samaritan laws and educate people about basic lifesaving techniques.
