you know, i bet it’s literally missing its primary control surface. like a tractor with the entire cab missing and some higher up was concerned someone would try to use it and hurt themselves.
Genuinely wouldn’t be surprised if someone did try to use it, but also don’t see why anyone would think a little red tag would prevent such a person from trying anyway.
The red tag isn’t to stop it, it’s to document the stupidity. Now when it goes to court/WCB, there’s documented proof that they tried to ensure even a moron would understand it’s not safe to use
yeah, it’s likely for insurance or regulatory reasons.
insurance will find any reason possible to deny your claim. even if that is a failure to remove the keys from the ignition after the car burst into flames.
regulators shouldn’t allow slack. with any company in a regulatory situation they will to exactly as much as they’re allowed to get away with. give them an inch, they take a Mile. letting hazard tags slide based on judgement creates space for corruption and abuse. following procedures to the letter with strict documentation can help curtail that.
