I was driving along Hindmarsh Drive yesterday morning and noticed the red light camera at the Parkway intersection being fixed. A guy in a high vis vest up a high ladder fixing the camera with a spanner (I assume) in one hand, as the other held a cigarette. If this guy falls off, who is responsible for his injuries? It struck me as a pretty bl**dy stupid thing to be doing, but one that his employer would probably be responsible for if he was injured. It makes me wonder who actually wears the cost if someone disregards their own safety?
