Raquel Downs · Answer 1

I select false because engineers are not the only thing we have, we have scientists doctors mathematicians and much more to give safety standards

Sasha Huynh · Answer 2

False.

Explanation:

Even though engineers are designing their buildings and products to meet safety expectations, things can go wrong, and engineers should never be allowed to have final say. That is the main reason why we have safety inspectors, and are able to live our lives safer today. If there were no second checks on different things, if one were to fail, we would know it for certain to be the engineer, and he does not want to take the blame, (and possibly a lawsuit), that may appear after the accident. If we want maximum safety, we ensure that there are many more people who prepare and examine products closely from time to time.
