How should you act when an accident casualty regains consciousness and wants to move away?

Explanation

Correct answer: Start a conversation and try to convince the person to remain on the scene until emergency services arrive.

A person injured in an accident is often in a state of shock, which prevents them from rationally assessing their own physical condition. Leaving the scene of their own accord, especially with suspected internal injuries, may constitute a direct threat to their life. It is the duty of the person providing first aid to attempt persuasion to ensure the casualty's safety until the professional emergency services arrive.
