In the exam (French)

Quel est un exemple d’assistance à personne en danger ?

  1. aLooking after a colleague’s children during their holidaysGarder les enfants d’un collègue pendant ses vacances
  2. bLending money to a neighbour who has debtsPrêter de l’argent à un voisin qui a des dettes
  3. cHelping a friend move house at the weekendAider un ami à déménager le week-end
  4. dCalling the emergency services when a person collapses in the streetAppeler les secours quand une personne fait un malaise dans la rueCorrect answer

Why?

Giving assistance means helping a person whose life or health is in danger, without putting yourself in danger. Calling 15, 18 or 112 is often enough. Doing nothing can be punished as “failure to assist a person in danger” (“non-assistance à personne en danger”). Helping a friend or a neighbour is generous, but it is not a legal obligation.
