In this case Honda is not liable because the safety instructions were clear in that the bikes should only be used off-road, while wearing a helmet.

Some of these dangers are shown in the documentary Gasland. This video shows the perspective of members of a community that have been affected by hydrofracking. In one of the scenes, a man holds a lighter next to his sink and runs his water. After a couple seconds his water turned into a flowing fire fountain. This is extremely hazardous not only because of the fire but because this man’s water contains chemical properties to set it on fire due to hydrofracking.
