True. And in the US, you are more likely to be sued for helping than for not helping.
But even if you "hadn't a clue", doing something is the right thing to do. In Canada, if you tried to help someone in a medical emergency, and failed, the family of whoever you tried to help would probably thank you for your efforts; in the States they would sue your ass off.
