Samaritans were people that the other people in that time looked down on --- sort of how people today make fun of Jewish people. They would say the Samaritans were dumb and lazy and mean.

One day a man was robbed and beaten up. He couldn't even get up out of the ditch at the side of the road. People kept going past him, saying 'I can't get involved.' A Samaritan man was going down the road and he stopped. He helped the man up, then he took him to his own house, bandaged his injuries, and fed him. The "worthless" Samaritan was the only person who would help that man.

Which rule dominant the US the good samaritan or the American standby rule?

In the United States, the Good Samaritan Rule generally encourages individuals to assist others in emergency situations without fear of legal repercussions, promoting altruism and helping behavior. In contrast, the American Standby Rule suggests that there is no legal obligation to assist someone in distress if you are not directly involved. While the Good Samaritan Rule provides protection for those who choose to help, the Standby Rule implies that bystanders can remain passive without facing legal consequences. Thus, the Good Samaritan Rule often prevails in contexts encouraging assistance, while the Standby Rule delineates the limits of that obligation.
