An automobile that regularly explodes on impact should be removed from the market. The financial costs of liability with probably outweigh any sales profits: risk reduction some risks can be reduced to an acceptable level through precautions. For example, a company would need to rent a crane for construction, and can either use its employee or hire and independent contractor. If a worker operates the crane and injures a bystander, they can sue the person, as well as be entitled to sue the company.
