Answer 2

Under common law, while a person is under no obligation to
provide emergency assistance at the scene of an accident, a person
who chooses to do so may be held civilly liable if he or she is found to
have acted in a negligent manner. To encourage individuals to render
assistance at accident scenes, New Jersey and many other states have
adopted "Good Samaritan" acts to provide civil immunity for
individuals who in good faith render emergency care at the scene of an
accident or in an emergency.
In its present form, New Jersey's "Good Samaritan Act" provides
immunity to (1) any individual, including health care professionals; (2)
the members of volunteer first aid, rescue and ambulance squads and
(3) municipal, county and State law enforcement officers, who in good
faith render emergency care at the scene of an accident or in an
emergency or who, in the case of volunteer members of first aid,
rescue and ambulance squads, transport the victims of an accident or
emergency to a hospital or other facility for treatment.
This bill would add municipal, county and State firefighters, both
paid and volunteer, to those specifically afforded immunity under the
"Good Samaritan Act."
