Have we gone to far with political correctness?

Wow, that is a tricky one. My first thought would be that without medical expertise you could have made the situation worse for the crash victims (spinal injuries etc have to be dealt with by experts) but I know if I saw a situation like that, where the car was about to go on fire, I would go in there too and do my very best to save them. I think that is only human nature. If you are disciplined for it then it does seem unfair but I would focus only on the fact that I had saved lives and if I received a reprimand for it, then so be it! You're a hero in many people's eyes!

When it comes to personal health and safety the law states that you are ultimately responsible for yourself but you also have a responsibility to take reasonable care for others around you. Given that it is unlikely that your company has a specific policy for attending RTA's in which others lives are in imminent danger, you can argue that you would have been neglecting your role to provide reasonable care for others had you left them in the car, its all a balance of your personal safety versus the safety of others. Good work.
