This is something that is very real. There is a local dog park that was built near a power sub station. Recently a lot of dogs and owners have been getting shocked just walking in to the park. Recently a couple of dogs got sent to the E Vet over it. And I think one owner was sent to the ER. However the power company has come out and deemed the place totally safe. I guess so they don't get sued. But if the place was totally safe why do people and dogs keep getting hurt there?

Declaring a place to be safe that quite clearly isn't safe should just open them to more lawsuits. If anything, they are more liable and subject to more penalties by being so negligent.
