Is it really a functioning legal system, or a society that has gotten to I'm not responsible for any of my actions, decisions, or the consequences there of! It's always somebody else's fault. Isn't diving something that from the time you start your first class that your taking personal responsibility for yourself, IE: checking the air in your tank, making sure your reg works properly, checking for proper weighting, not diving in conditions that you're not ready for?
Sorry, I'm not buying it.
New divers are by definition incapable of assessing the risk of diving in conditions hugely different than what they've experienced, and have been conditioned by all their prior SCUBA training to "follow the leader".
