Depending on the state, usually this refers to things like traffic accidents.
Seriously, you do NOT want Joe Sixpack required to act like Captain America - we could have had 2 stabbings in addition to a gang rape. Somebody should have called the cops. Nobody should have stood around and watched. Nobody should be required to intervene, though, unless trained to do so (such as campus police or administrators).
