"Another light rail crash Thursday, which severed the leg of a man using a wheelchair, adds to the grim count of 52 pedestrians struck since the line opened in 2009 despite a long-overdue Sound Transit initiative to make surface crossings safer." https://lnkd.in/gmfMPjtF #seattle #lightrail #Seattlelightrail #pedestriansafety #seattlewashington

Attorney Heather M. Cover of Rogers & Cover, PLLC was quoted in the Law360 article: Cruise Line Can't Avoid Trial In Suit Over Seaplane Crash. Heather Cover, representing the plaintiffs, stated that the judge "got it right." She emphasized the accountability of companies that promote high-risk activities without proper warnings: "This is really a case where you have a company that has this superior knowledge of this risk, and yet they promoted it to their customers or their guests as one of the top things to do in Alaska, without any warnings... If you have a company that has superior knowledge of an increased risk, and they promote the risk to sell cruise tickets, there's some accountability there." The plaintiffs are represented by James S. Rogers and Heather M. Cover of Rogers & Cover PLLC. The McArthur and Komplin plaintiffs are also represented by Ranse M. Partin, William K. Owens, and L'Zandra V. Jones of Conley Griggs Partin LLP, and the Kroll plaintiffs are represented by David C. Wise and Robert J. Bingle of Wise Law Offices.

“Clues emerging from the moments before the deadly collision Wednesday night between an Army helicopter and an American Airlines passenger jet suggest that multiple layers of the country’s aviation safety apparatus failed, according to flight recordings, a preliminary internal report from the Federal Aviation Administration, interviews with current and former air traffic controllers and others briefed on the matter. But the catastrophe already appeared to confirm what pilots, air traffic controllers and safety experts had been warning for years: Growing holes in the aviation system could lead to the kind of crash that left 67 people dead in the Potomac River in Washington. Even before an official cause is determined, there were signs Wednesday that pilots and air traffic controllers at Reagan National were not operating under optimal conditions. Safety lapses in aviation have been increasing for years, leading to an alarming pattern of close calls in the skies and at airports involving commercial airlines. They have occurred amid rising congestion at the country’s busiest airports, including Reagan National, where the frequent presence of military flights makes controlling traffic even more complicated. At the same time, a chronic shortage of air traffic controllers has forced many to work six-day weeks and 10-hour days — a schedule so fatiguing that multiple federal agencies have warned that it could impede controllers’ abilities to do their jobs properly. Few facilities have enough fully certified air traffic controllers, according to a Times investigation in 2023. Some controllers say little has improved since then.“ via The New York Times https://lnkd.in/ghrn4dgM #airtrafficcontrol #airtraffic #airtrafficsafety #airsafety #consumersafety #aviationsafety
