Ch. 10 · 第1節 交通事故のとき

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.

[True / False · Medium]

Answer: False

Explanation

The Rules of the Road 1(2) states "especially when the head is injured, do not move the person," but an exception is clearly noted: "However, if there is a risk of a subsequent accident, quickly rescue the injured person and move them to a safe location." Preventing subsequent accidents takes priority.
