A couple of issues ago, there was a small article about the advisedness of all Instructors and folk who offer rider training to have pukka Insurance - in case they are negligent!!! Negligent how? By failing to vet out those clients stupid enough to injure themselves and blame other folk for something blatantly their own damned fault?Now, I fully realise that I am quickly blending in with the hills so my take on such matters is far from modern - but REALLY!Am I the only one that is hartily sickened by this intrusion of the litigant obsessed American way of life into what is one if not THE most British of pastimes - Riding?It was good to see a few years ago that the Law Lords - after about twenty years of normal education, the Bar exam, working as Barristers, being called as a Judge that they came to the conclusion (wait for it...... ) that learning to ride was dangerous! But they passed the buck on liability ( obviously, because all their mates are still looking for work ambulance chasing.)What say you?
