This immediately brought back Frank Robinson’s words when I was fortunate enough to attend a Factory Safety course quite some years ago. He asked for questions and I enquired about the doors off speed limit… oh… he said…pausing… thats’s the lawyers!

So it was decided, to minimise claim risk, speed would be limited for door/s off.
