You're waiting for the emergency services to arrive at the scene of an incident. A pedestrian's leg is bleeding heavily, but there's nothing embedded in the wound. What could you do to help?
DVSA explanation
Before helping the pedestrian, you should protect yourself from contact with blood. If there's nothing embedded in the wound, you can stem the flow of blood by applying pressure to the wound area. As soon as practical, fasten a pad to the wound with a bandage or cloth.
