I don't know about North Carolina, but in California (at least when I lived there) in order to get a Class I driver's license to drive school busses, etc. you had to take a course in First Aid and pass it in order to get that license level. One of the requirements in the First Aid class was that you were required to give assistance in an actual emergency. People were actually sued for not doing so. They may have overturned that law by now.

As for the mile markers, they aren't really that difficult to follow. They start at the state line, and chenge each mile. Even the exits are marked with corresponding numbers, depending on the nearest mile marker. But if you were to ask the average driver, they wouldn't know that, because there is never an explanation given to new drivers here. If you can mark an "X" in North Carolina, you can get a driver's license. And now you don't even have to speak English.

That is not a link. It is not informative because of several things.

First, the fact that it might be a requirement to agree to something in order to get some benefit does not mean that it is the law.

I am not arguing that it is not the law. I am saying that without a link to the law or a quotation from someone expected to be knowledgable about the law (cop, lawyer, EMC, etc.), it is not informative.

The second point is that whether a civil suit is a possibility has nothing to do with criminal law. They are two different things.
