It's a sign of the times. If someone walks around back of their truck and slams their leg into the trailer ball they forgot was there it's an accident and they whine for a couple days about the bruise. If the truck is being auctioned then they figure in some way the auction company should pay for a doctor to look at their leg and compensate them for not being able to feed the hogs as easily the next day--well maybe week as they want to be good and healed.

Kinda like, if you can fit 30 airbags in a car and make it safer than with just 2 then aren't you kinda required to do it? Some people think so--especially if they lost a loved one in a car with only 2.
