Problem statements

1. dangerous areas.
2. Because the visitors lacked common sense, the should be held accountable for the incidents, seeing as signs stating, "Enter At Your Own Risk," were posted. 
3. The state is obligated to post signs, but it is the visitors' responsibility to act with caution and common sense around these dangerous areas. 

     The state is obligated to post signs, but it is the visitors' responsibility to act with caution and common sense around these dangerous areas. In most the incidents that were in the article, the people were harmed or killed due to lack of caution and common sense that they had at the time. The states should post more legitimate looking signs, since the warning signs around were hand-made and probably not taken too seriously. Although it was partially the state's fault for the lack of "real" caution signs, the visitors around should have taken the warnings seriously, nonetheless. 

     I believe that the visitors should be held accountable for their actions. David Potts was dancing around the blowhole when the wave hit him, and he fell into it. He was not being cautious or using his common sense, when he clearly should have since he was around a dangerous area. It was because of his foolish behavior, that he was not found, and is most likely dead. Daniel Dick was only eighteen years old when straddled an explosive water sprout and had gotten a serious head injury. The area was not equipped with a warning sign, but it is common sense to not do such a thing. He was not granted any financial compensation, for his accident. These events were unfortunate, but could have been easily avoided, had the visitors acted with more caution and care. 

     Due to these terrible incidents, more signs and precautions are being taken more seriously by the tourists and visitors. The staff working at some of these dangerous attractions, are especially taking the warnings more seriously and informing the visitors more often.
