Should People Be Held Accountable In Life Or Death Situations?

Imagine a person getting into a life-or-death situation, forced to make split decisions to ensure their survival. When people get into that situation, every decision is crucial. People call for help when in a situation for their life, but getting help from other people can put them at risk or they have to face a consequence because they have to be held accountable to a law. Saying so, that same law can prevent people from calling for help. With that being said, why people in life-or-death situations should not be held accountable for their actions because people do not wish to get themselves in a life-or-death situation and it would be too difficult to hold people accountable The first reason people shouldn’t be held accountable in life-or-death situations is because people don’t want to get into them.
Another reason people shouldn’t be held accountable for life-or-death situations is that it is too difficult to fairly hold people accountable. For example, the argumentative text “The Cost Of Survival” touches on why trying to hold them accountable for their actions is hard. They state that when people have to face a bill to get saved, they may be hesitant to call for help or not even call for help at all. “We know that when people believe that they are going to receive a large bill for a SAR mission, they delay a call for help or refuse to call for help.” It is difficult to fairly hold people accountable because of all the things that can happen and the purpose is to save people and they want to avoid unnecessary danger. On the topic of unnecessary danger, some people think they should be held accountable for their actions because they put the people saving them at risk of dying. The reason I disagree is because the rescue workers' job is to save people and they knowingly face danger to help people in
