You are involved in a road accident. Are you obliged to provide necessary assistance to the injured person even though you do not have qualification as a paramedic?

Explanation
Correct answer: Yes
In accordance with the Road Traffic Act, any person involved in a road accident has a legal duty to provide necessary assistance to injured persons. This duty applies to every person, regardless of their medical qualifications. Failure to provide assistance is a criminal offence; therefore, action should be taken to the best of one's ability, such as calling the emergency services and securing the scene of the incident.
