A Samaritan is a person who selflessly helps others, especially those in need or distress. The term originates from the biblical parable of the Good Samaritan, symbolizing kindness and compassion towards strangers or those facing hardship.
A bystander or good Samaritan including an eyewitness of a road accident may take an injured person to the nearest hospital, and the bystander or good Samaritan should be allowed to leave immediately.
