Thread Name: BS: Should people pay for their own risks ?
Subject: BS: Should people pay for their own risks ?
Much has been said on this site about Richard Hammonds who kept doctors and nurses busy this week by his own foolish actions. Should people who climb mountains against the advice of weather reports and then risk up to twenty other peoples lives having to rescue them be charged for their actions ? The only people who rattle on about this guy being a hero are those who seem to think speed is acceptable. All cars should have restricters fitted, after all the maximum speed limit in the UK is 70mph. The B.B.C. should be made to pay for the waste of time of our doctors and nurses. Noel Edmonds got a young guy to proform a stunt some years back, which resulted in the guy being killed. This is unacceptable and if you cause a road accident you are expected to pay by law.
