Cultural Dilemma - VALUES
• You are the passenger in a car driven by a close friend.
• He hits a pedestrian.
• You know he was driving at 80 kms per hour in a 60 zone.
• There are no witnesses.
• His lawyer says that if you testify under oath in court that your friend was only driving at 60, it might save him from serious consequences.
Does your friend have a right to expect you to protect him?
Would you lie in court to ”save” your friend?
