Correct answer
- ASí, tenemos la obligación de ayudar.Yes, we have a duty to help.
Under Article 129 of the General Traffic Regulations, all road users who witness an accident must help or call for help for any victims. This includes those who are not directly involved in the accident. The duty to help exists to keep everyone safe and prevent further harm. So the correct answer is yes: we must stop and help.
