The Rec Center I occasionally swim at has starting blocks. I am aware that is a swim device that I am supposed to use once in awhile. The pool is very deep and used for daily swim team practice and some meets. Yet, there is always a bright yellow cone placed on the blocks during lap swimming hours. No one may use the starting blocks at this time. I find it irritating. No one could possibly get hurt unless they were especially idiotic. I guess they're worried about lawsuits. I saw someone doing backstroke starts once, but who wants to do those? This practice will discourage me from ever entering a non-OW event.
With all those effective waivers out there we sure have seen reduced legal fees, fewer lawsuits, right?
I'm not sure the presence or absence of effective waivers is at all relevant to any purported rise in litigation.
But here's a way to reduce litigation and legal bills. Insurance companies could actually do something other than collect huge premiums and routinely deny coverage of claims or force policy holders to appeal and appeal and appeal the denial of coverage. And I believe there is a new niche market in your industry: home owners making more than one claim are subject to abrupt cancellation of their home owners policy, leaving them no recourse except to obtain outrageously priced emergency coverage to comply with their mortgage obligations. How dare they make a claim after paying all those premiums.
Now, we could just go back to discussing starting blocks and stupid rules, as Allen mentioned earlier.
