Too right, you'd sue them! I would... anyone would. *Oh, because there was a sidewalk between the road and the guard rail we didn't think it was necessary to make it strong enough to stop a car falling…

Didn't it strike you as strange at the time that no media questioned this feeble explanation? You'd expect the media, as part of the overall investigation into this tragic incident, to give a thorough examination…

If they built a bridge with a criminally flimsy guard rail it's fairly foreseeable.

Yes! Thank you jackfish for pointing the typo out.
