## Question
If there are injured persons and they have received head injuries, you must never move them, even if there is a risk of a subsequent accident.

## Correct answer
False

## Explanation
The Rules of the Road 1(2) states "especially when the head is injured, do not move the person," but it sets an exception: "However, if there is a risk of a subsequent accident, quickly rescue the injured person and move them to a safe place." When there is a risk of a subsequent accident, moving the person to a safe place is permitted as an exception.
