4251 A CHP officer at the scene of an accident who does nothing to increase the risk of injury to a tow truck operator working at the scene or to induce the tow truck operator to rely on the officer for protection owes him no duty of reasonable care; provisions of the CHP Officer Safety Manual may serve as evidence that an officer's conduct was unreasonable, but are relevant only if the officer owed a duty to act reasonably.CitationMINCH v CHP (Tow Truck) 140 CA4 895 [See: EvC 669.1; Davidson v City of Westminster 32 C3 197]
