We had a teacher crocodile walking a load of kids attempting to hold the tape up so kids could walk under. When confronted she said 'it was too dangerous to cross the road':confused1:

 

 

 

We can not legislate for idiots although I do not know the exact details of this sad incident.

 

 

Now that is a CLASSIC example of blind adherence to the written risk assessment despite prevailing / emerging circumstances resulting in a complete abrogation of personal responsibility.

 

I'm also recalling a cherry picker incident where RA stated use cherry picker in preference to climbing as an inherently 'safer' method. So cherry picker was set up with inappropriate ground support and went over.

 

Blind adherence to RA without considering prevailing / emerging circumstances is the new hazard! Oh, the irony!!!
