People are more likely to help if the solution is clear and readily apparent, making the decision-making process easier. If the situation is ambiguous, consulting with others or having more time to decide may be helpful, but ultimately having a clear solution is the most important factor in deciding to intervene. Being pressed for time may actually make it more difficult to help, as people may prioritize their own safety or need to leave quickly.
