NYC enforcing new safety rules for cranes after 2-year probe into Midtown collapse

I mean, about those cranes... finally, someone's doing something about 'em . I was like "how did we even get to this point?" where we're risking people's lives for a construction project. The fact that they had to wait 2 years to make some changes is just crazy . And now, because of one fire, they're making everyone else who uses those cranes have more experience and training... it's like "better late than never" . I'm glad they're taking safety seriously though. We should've been doing this a long time ago .

OMG I'm so glad they're cracking down on those cranes ! The thought of all those people getting hurt is just heartbreaking . It's crazy how a little fire can cause such chaos and destruction . But yay for the new regulations, it's about time we got some safety improvements in place . 3,000 hours of experience? That's like, a lot of work experience ! I hope it helps prevent more accidents from happening. And yeah, it's all good that construction injuries are at their lowest level in ages . Let's just make sure everyone follows the rules and stays safe on those machines

OMG, this is crazy ! I mean, I'm glad they're taking steps to make those cranes safer, but it's wild how something like that can happen. Like, who would've thought fire could start from a disconnected hose? It just goes to show that even the smallest mistake can lead to a huge disaster.

And yeah, it's not just about making sure the operators have more experience, but also about training them properly . I mean, if they had put out that fire with the extinguisher on deck, who knows what would've happened? It's like, one wrong move and... boom . Can't even imagine how scary it must be for those construction workers.

Anyway, I guess this is a good thing that New York City is taking these safety regulations seriously . It's just sad that people had to go through that traumatic experience before they did. Hopefully, this new initiative will help prevent something like that from happening again in the future .

So many cranes down in NYC just because one guy forgot to check his fuel hoses like that can happen to anyone, right? Fire suppression systems are a must now It's crazy how one little mistake can lead to so much chaos and people getting hurt . At least they're cracking down on companies who don't follow safety protocols And yeah, 3,000 hours of experience is a lot . I guess it's all about learning from our mistakes and moving forward .
