Ok how about this scenario: car goes out of control and hits a pedestrian. Is pedestrian "an active participant in the situation"? Give up dte. You had knee jerk revulsion like we all did. You just decided to stick with your first impressions.Not the same situation, although I'll admit there's a judgment call hidden in that. With the cars, you're an active participant in the situation. This is a bystander, only tangentially related to the event itself.
