In some jurisdictions, such as France and Germany, an individual would always be under a duty to act in what have become known as ‘easy rescue’ situations (French Penal Code: Article 63; German Penal Code: Article 323c). Easy rescue situations are those where the defendant can save another individual without placing himself in danger. English law, however, does not recognise such ‘easy rescue’ situations.
