good effort thinking to get sri extinguisher promo

The law has been designed by an idiot that lives in the world where nobody cares anymore what happens to others, the most important is their own sake, so go die with ur law. go fly kite.

i think back to social problem, no trust among each others. Good lesson to everyone.
Anyway just a sad story as someone death.

Think they need to come up with a new ruling, all 24 hrs petrol stations are not allowed to take all the fire extingushers back into their office. Must atleast leave 1 - 2 units at the designated areas.

AGREED...!! I think SHELL is doing that nowadays.

Based on my limited knowledge, the law is as follows:-

Scenario 1

There is no legal obligation for any bystander to rescue a victim from danger. So for e.g. if you see a girl burning in a car and you could have put out the fire with a fire extinguisher but chose not to do so, nobody can sue you if she burnt to death.

Scenario 2

If you chose to help to put out the fire but failed and the girl burnt to death, again nobody can sue you for trying to help.

Scenario 3

If you try to put out the fire but were injured in the process, then you can sue the driver of the car who knocked into the girl's car (provided you did not use foolhardy attempts to try and put out the fire).

Just my 2 cents.

But if the girl survived the incident and she saw u just standing there and watching, can she sue u?

I don't care who is right or who is to be blamed. If I were in Mr Teo's shoes (We need more Malaysians like Mr Teo...He did everything he could within his means and capabilities in the most critical of situations...but one cannot clap with just one hand...it takes two to tango), I would do exactly the same that he did.

The only difference is that, upon digesting the intent of the petrol pump attendant's refusal to assist, I would endeavour to break the glass of that petrol station, grab the fire extinguisher, leave my name and phone number on a note to the petrol pump attendants, tell them to call police/ambulance/fire brigade if they wish and go back to the scene of accident to try to use the fire extinguisher as best possible to attempt to save the injured lady.

I may risk getting into trouble for my conduct above, but at least I know I can sleep tight after that knowing that at least I tried to make a difference. Irrespective of whether I succeed in saving the life of that injured lady, at least I will not have my shadow telling me me "...you could have done this; you could have done that..." for the rest of my life.

And yes, I still don't care who's right or wrong in this incident...the first priority is to secure the scene of accident (so that a secondary accident would not occur as a result of the primary accident) and to rescue the injured lady or any other injured individuals from that accident.

I believe most of us are not lawyers la (well, I am not) and my understanding on law is just like anyone here. Law are made by human, but I think HUMANITY prevails if the two conflicts. I hope you are saying this just for our information and not really stopping you from helping others in similar situation.


I believe Teo is a good man and he can sleep soundly at night. Knowing that he had tried his very best to save the girl's life.

If the family really sue Teo, I dont know what this world has come to. Even though you tell me that the law says Teo can be sued.

The law is memang there for a reason. And I thank you for giving us the picture from a 'lawyer' perspective.

WHY don't we open a new topic , 2 side of us and have a practical case on Mr Teo ... being sued.
1 party defense Teo , and the other party try to sue him .. ( victim's family )
I personnaly think it is interesting.
And I will be the defendant supporter.

For to recent few post above , I fully agreed , do what ever u want as long as you can sleep and live happy....

ps... if BHP sue him... I think Teo in trouble... but , BHP will be trouble also to face to public, specially LGTC.

its a very sad incident indeed.. but 1 simple fire extingusier would have made lots of differences.

do anyone know where can i get one ? portable unit for my car.. i remember we were discussion to do a GB for this but then the thread just died off...
