This should be a concern to all of us, God forbid some 8 year old gets run
over by a car in grid, I can see the parents being contacted by
"brother-in-law" lawyer. With the right jury it wouldn't matter how many
wavers the parents had signed. I sure that it would be pointed out that with
additional care the accident would not have happened. If you are the SSS or
officer of the host region, the driver. etc you could be sued personally for
not taking "reasonable" care.
I know YOU would not sue (at least until it happened to your child) but
others may.
Its an adult sport with very dangerous equipment. Lets protect the kids.
