Paying for the weekend's exertions

I am paying for the weekend's (and last weekend's) exertions today. My body is telling me I need some rest by giving me a sore throat and a very slight head cold.

So unless the sore throat goes away today I will miss Yoga tonight!

On a totally unrelated note a mate called me this morning to say he had been knocked off his motorbike last night, he's OK but get this the car who knocked him didn't stop!

But it gets better too, no one stopped all the other cars just simply drove around him as he lay there on the road!

The boy tells me this is normal, people just don't want to get involved. I am amazed though, you see someone obviously in pain and just been in an accident and you just drive around them and pretend it didn't happen?

Is this really normal?

You know...I got lucky and two people did stop for me when I had my accident a few weeks back. And also had about 3 people stop in my other accident the previous year.

I guess it all really matters the place and time...but that's pretty awful people drove around your friend. I'm offended and annoyed for them. But...there's a name for this mindset...what was it?!

I'll try to remember and post another comment when it comes to mind.

Hope you're well! Talk soon!

Do you mean diminished responsibility? Where by people believe someone else will stop subsequently everyone thinks this and no one helps.
