Exclamation Sometimes Health & Safety IS important

I know we often complain about the huge amount of safety rules inflicted on us, but sometimes they are there for a reason.....

Unfortunately a friend of a friend is facing Christmas without their beautiful 18 year old daughter, may she rest in peace.

that really is tragic and yes does go to show that the H&S at Karting circuits is there for a reason.

Tragic.

I was friends with someone else who was engulfed in a fireball during a karting incident.

what a tragic story.....

i have hung up my karting gloves, due to the severity of some of the crashes i have witnessed

H&S can go a bit far though, like having to wear a safety helmet when working on a roof!! lol

Very tragic

I know HSE is a real pain in the 'arris at times and some rules and regs are trivial but ultimately, it's there for a reason, we may not agree with it at times but its a law that has to be complied with
