That’s why liability waivers our thing

Can have 1,000,000 waivers per participant but they can still sue, and would need to go to court with a lawyer. Also no insurance company is going to work with them, or only offer skyhigh rates. It is a seemingly good idea on surface level but even a tiny exploration of its general execution leads to very obvious problems

People are always going to try and get over whenever they think they can get away with it, but, it doesn’t mean it’s going to happen or that it can’t be done

Practically anything can be done with enough resources thrown at it but that doesn’t mean that it should be done. Simply being possible does not automatically make it a good idea

Being as it’s been done before in other places (Cleveland and been talked about doing something similar in others, it’s worth the trying. Clearly it’s a good idea.

It looks like you shared an AMP link. These should load faster, but AMP is controversial because of concerns over privacy and the Open Web.

You don’t ride obviously. Dirt biking legally at parks is a hobby id have trouble affording at my salary. It’s close to owning a small boat
