Explanation:

John's reaction is an example of Bystander.

John was taking a nap in the afternoon when he woke up from the noise of car crash. He saw out of his window and discovered that two cars crashed into each other and a lot of people were gathered around them. He decided not to call 911 because he thought that any of the people standing there would have called them already. His this behavior is an example of Bystander. Bystander is a social and psychological concept, which claims that if there are a lot of people around a victim, any of them had provided help to the victim, which means a person is less likely to help a victim in the presence of other people. So more the number of bystander, less would be the chance to help victim.
