Never approach a bull from the front a horse from the rear or a fool from any direction!
I think the point that most people are missing is when there is an accident, 99% of the time someone is negligent. If no one is negligent, accidents rarely happen.
How would this play out in NC where there
is an “assumption of risk” it sounds way to vage to me?

Not sure what your question is…assumption of risk essentially is the fact if you go swimming with sharks and get injured by a shark, you can’t sue for this injury b/c you “assumed the risk.”
Assumption of risk generally is a defense used by the defendant against the plaintiff, aka an affirmative defense. In my example above, if the person injured by the shark tried to sue the dive operator for the shark injury, the dive operator (defendant) could claim the that the plaintiff “assumed the risk” and knowingly swam with sharks–a dangerous activity.
Hope this helps.
