One person's little design error can cause injuries to how many others? Imagine yourself strolling in the park and come upon what seems to be a basic ramp bridge. You trip and fall down agonisingly, bumping down the terrible wooden steps instead of gently going down the minor hill. This situation shows the vital need of careful design in public areas. The plain eye cannot detect the actual character of this horrible design before it is too late almost entirely. The ramp's misleading look can cause major injuries, which emphasises how much a design error might affect unaware users. For all the folks this misleading stair bridge caused injuries, this photo should be plenty for justification. It reminds designers and builders to give safety and usefulness top priority above appearance. In the end, this occurrence emphasises the need of thorough testing and user comments in the design process to avoid such dangerous circumstances developing in the next years.
