Answer:

The answer is: D) an applicable Good Samaritan statute

Explanation:

Good Samaritan statute offers legal protection to an individual or a group or people who give assistance to someone else who they believe is injured, ill, incapacitated or in possible peril.

For someone to be liable for failing to offer assistance to someone they consider injured, ill, etc., they must have "duty to rescue". Some states require individuals to notify if they see someone who is in peril, or hurt, etc., but thy are not required to act (their have duty to rescue is limited to the notification).
