The thing is, that SOMEONE else who would take care of it DID get involved which so happened to be (as libralady said) the driver of a lorry/truck. He slowed down to make the other traffic do so too. If that "someone" didn´t get involved then maybe that baby wouldn´t have had such a lucky escape. The mother couldn´t have sued in the first place as she was the one who neglected her child by placing it under a bush to sleep. She was given the child back but in places like the UK etc if that were to happen, the mother would have been arrested and most likely sentenced for neglecting and endangering the childs life.

if you look at the time libralady posted her´s after mine, so I did not know that the lorry driver had slowed the traffic because it did not say in the report I saw and I was answering theanigma´s question "what is wrong with the drivers not stopping" and here in Canada a woman would have her child taken away from her for that type of neglect, it´s called child indangerment. 

 I know you were answering TheAenigma´s question and I also was replying too with my opinion. I think it was wrong that many people didn´t stop because they could have hit the child, and if they didn´t they didn´t make sure that any other person slowed down either because there was a "hazard" in the road. Which is also legally required, baby or not. Everyone is entitled to thier opinion, and this is mine

Hey!  Don´t drag me into your domestics!

oh come on theAnigma, the more the merrier!  We were basicly saying the same thing, nothing more

 There is nothing wrong with arguing that black is white when we all know that it is really pink

• It´s basic psychology. In situations like this most people don´t do anything. If a disaster happens, or something so strange as a baby on the street, people are stunned and just do what the majority of the other people does. If that is driving away, they will drive away. You can´t blame people for being humans
