The Australian Medical Association of Western Australia believes that excessive demands are made by doctors who are under a legal obligation to provide first aid to injured people.

She drove to the nearest police station to report the accident. She argued, unsuccessfully, that she did not feel safe to stop at night in an unsafe area
