If you are trained in CPR and fail to use it on a patient could you be sued for malpractice?
Not likely as there is the Good Samaritan law in place to protect people who for what ever reason choose not to preform CPR. A trained individual may not always fall under preforming CPR being part of their job description. Those that work in the medical field are required to use CPR if a patient is in need of it can be sued to negligence.

Can a mouse ruin a truck clutch?
the answer is yes it could poo in the pipe and block the liquid from traveling round the pipes The answer is more likely to be no, if a mouse chewed through a cluch hose the cluch would just fail to work, repairing the hose would repair the clutch. It could if it isn't trained in the proper way to drive a stick-shift. The best way to teach him how to do it is to ride along side in the passenger seat and talk them through it. Be patient as it might take them a while to get used to it. Good luck with that. - Rocky_B
