It's a sad state of affairs when people are discouraged from building a device that would save people's lives, for fear that the one or two lives/arms/legs that might be lost would result in a lawsuit that would put the designer/manufacturer out of business. Wouldn't the "greater good" concept - saving the majority of people's lives - outweigh the possibility that no invention is perfect?
Ah, there I go using common sense and right and wrong to answer questions again. I'm going to have to stop doing that.
It just seems that if someone designs a rollover protection device that substantially works as it should ought to be encouraged, since the alternative is to continue to use these machines without any protection at all, dramatically more dangerous than using a good, but imperfect, ROPS.
Shakespeare was only slightly over the top when he used the expression, "Kill the lawyers".
