If a foreseeable risk is ignored and someone is injured as a result, it’s negligence not an accident. A baby in a high chair spilling his milk is an accident.

"In such geographic situations"? Like what, perfect straightaways? Anywhere there's moving vehicles?

My examples were hyperbolic, yes, because the suggestion that it's TLB's fault is absurd.

Found this ...... www.mccue.com/safety-bollards ..... a company that makes different bollards and says "Safety is no accident! With CrashCore Bollards, you keep your people safe."

The Walmart's in Gilford, Plymouth and Tilton all have bollards at their customer entrance presumably to keep motor vehicles out of the store.

Some combination of bollards, and a concrete Jersey barrier could go good, there.

Last month, I wrote (here) of a Jersey Barrier in Maryland which. launched a small car into the air, subsequently killing eight construction workers.

Well, that's a valid criticism on solid concrete barriers, so could be that two or three or four or five large granite boulders could be good, thinking the boulders would be irregular shaped as opposed to a Jersey concrete barrier and could absorb the impact by moving or rolling a wee bit ........ rock & roll! ..... with real N.H. gray granite boulders weighing 5000-lbs each ..... creating a protective rock garden.

Who knows but maybe Looney Bin will bring in some big, heavy, large, granite boulders and some soil and build an attractive rock garden, out front that's both protects and enhances, with big boulders and green grass and Looney Bin may become 'Looney Bin on the Rocks' ...... or something!
