Looks very much like an old bridge I flew my drone over near the new Top Golf. Would have been neat to see it still in action. Didn't realize there were several of them around.

When a highly likely outcome is a settlement depending on the scenario, I tend to disagree. They don't have to win, and everyone still gets paid - all while the entity being sued doesn't have to deal with excessive legal and PR costs. Many, many lawsuits are filed in the country simply for the settlement - and that to me is frivolous in many cases.

Why can't you stay on topic? This isn't about insurers, or even tort reform. This is about frivolous lawsuits, which you claim do not exist. A person with no damages cannot file a lawsuit and win, you say. Yet it happens all the time. 50% of the lawyer commercials you see on TV are for "personal injury". The other 50% are class action. Both of which are generally predatory in nature, often push lawsuits that would not and should not exist but they make money regardless, and THAT is the whole point I have repeatedly made while you call me dumb and try to change the subject. You aren't terribly clever.

It's fun to watch you lob insults while providing absolutely zero backing for anything you are saying. Meanwhile, if you didn't rely on me to spoon feed you, you would see many bipartisan bills in state legislatures, a GOP one in House, and so on simply to tactical the very thing you say doesn't exist and isn't a problem. Welcome to reply back if you can provide some sort of substance other than unsubstantiated claims and name calling.

I guess I can spoon feed you information since I'm the "dumb" one. Plenty of pages out there... Here's just one. https://www.judicialhellholes.org/reports/2022-2023/2022-2023-executive-summary/

Whew! I'm glad that frivolous lawsuits are not brought (and won or settled) on a regular basis. I'm definitely dumb for thinking that was a normal occurrence. I'm also dumb for believing there are hundreds of law firms that specialize solely on predatory lawsuits. Thanks for clearing all that up for me.

....Oh wait, there are entire websites setup to track this sort of thing easily accessible via Google? Oof. I don't know what to believe now. Factual information, or you.

Sometimes accidents are just accidents, and no amount of litigation can stop them. Alternatively, there are so many variables that not all of them can be monitored constantly. In this case, we don't yet know the cause, but implying a lawsuit will fix whatever it is... Is quite premature.

But I certainly do hope the 5 injured individuals have all of their medical bills covered and any related costs associated with the accident. Everyone else? Be happy this was a minor accident.

I don't think anyone is saying legal action is unwarranted for those injured. However, looking at the video, this thing looks pretty darn minor. Advising everyone to automatically go on legal offense is irresponsible and just furthering our "sue happy" culture that typically benefits nobody meaningfully but lawyers.

I notice the roommate situation and wonder: is this a sublet situation? Is the friend even on the actual lease with the landlord? Is subletting permitted on the primary lease? Friend is probably SOL if they are on the primary lease with the landlord. If sublet, there could be some loopholes to exploit.

I'd say any of the numerous bars would suffice 🤷‍♂️

Maybe you're mislabeling it. I see a bunch of people talking about cesspools. Maybe that's what they were responding to instead of a puddle. 🤔

And they just recently got new boards and darts 🙃
