The guy in the OP who didn’t help that poor girl is a Hasid Shoteh, or maybe just a rasha (hard to tell the difference between the two sometimes). A complete lack of regard for a human life or awkwardness should never be justified through the laws of negiah, which were intended to protect us from lewdness and arousal, not normative, day-to-day interactions with people. In such cases, these people make the Torah into a mockery and a laughing stock, r”l.
