So defendants should not accept personal responsibility when they screw
up
and damn near get someone killed? Or is personal responsibility
something
that applies only to plaintiffs?

What I'm saying is that when you decide to use a product, you accept a
certain amount of responsibility.
How much? More than Joe Schmoe currently accepts, that's for sure!
Where motorcycles and flying machines are concerned, that burden is even
greater.

Make up your mind. Either there is personal responsibility for both sides,
or there isn't any. Can't pick and choose, because when you BUILD a problem,
you also accept a certain amount of responsibility.

It didn't go to trial, so the defendent didn't make an issue of anything.

Sorry, but here you're wrong, period. You don't have to get to trial to make
an issue of something in the lawsuit.

Remember, if reading the account according to the plaintiff's counsel,
you're getting a definite slant.

In this case, that's rather unlikely.
