You and your partner are driving a dangerous prisoner to jail. On your way, you see a car accident and there seem to be injured people as the cars are quite damaged. What would you do? CORRECT ANSWER The right answer to this question is that you will proceed with your job - that is driving the prisoner to their destination but that you will notify the emergency services about the accident on the road giving description and details about what you see along with the location.
