Very true! There was a scene to that effect in Arthur C. Clarke's EARTHLIGHT.

2017-09-02 10:35:29 +0000 UTCMy main issue with the old "Must respond to distress calls" while in space, is that unlike a boat, ships have specific dV for going from Point A to Point B and not much else. Adding in a "Point C" and you end up with two ships in distress. Sorry, I hear your distress call, but all I can do is forward it to the nearest Patrol Ship and hopefully they have the dV to go and rescue you.
