Most accidents occur as the result of failure to
follow simple and fundamental safety rules. For this
reason, most accidents can be prevented by
recognizing the real cause and doing something
about it before the accident occurs.
Many conditions cannot be completely
safeguarded against without interfering with
efficient operation and/or reasonable accessibility.
