These kind of law suits just drive companies out of business and others not to get into certain lines of products because of liability. this just stifles creativity and new products that could be invented .I hate lawyers they only care about them selves under the disguise of helping other people.
So you feel that a company that profits from selling a product that it produces,advertises and sells as a "safety harness" that in turn actually kills you need not be sued out of business?
If your spouse were killed because the airbag in your car failed to inflate because of a failed design you would not sue the manufacturer?
As ridiculous as these cases are they do force legitimate manufacturers to produce products that function safely and asadvertised.
I'm not saying that if the co is neglagent and makes something that is unsafe they shouldn't be sued . There are to many law suits that look to blame a co just because you use there product and got hurt . accidents do happen naturaly without falt of the product and they where just useing it at the time. I'm saying i think that a lot of people don't produce
items or go forward with ideas is because they are afraid of being sued . I know in my area they stopped selling diving boards for pools because they are afraid of being sued for using one. Can you get hurt using a diving board .Yes but can
you use one safley. Yes you can . and no i wouldn't sue because an air bag didn't inflate . I'm sure that it happens
a very small percentage of time but none the less i'm sure it happens. this should not put a stop to using the product
to help save other lives.
Every product has some amount of failures that they make. I'm just sick and tired of those frivalous law suitsthat sue just because they can . like the person that sued because there coffee was hot . now they state it on the cup [:-]. it gets rediculousthat they state the obvious
