Once you walk away from it, its someone else's responsibility...

Doesn't it take a bit more than "walking away from it" to transfer
responsibility to another?

So if I leave the engine running in a rented plane and walk away it's someone
else's responsibility if the plane takes off and kills someone?

If the engine is running, the plane is not secure.

It can be argued that the jet with the engine off that rolled into the
highway was not secure either.
