Allocating blame for cable car crash

Article on BBC site 18 July 2006. Provides more information about the Nevis Range cable car crash that injured 5 people.

I am interested by the language used by Mr Hinteregger from the operating company. Couple of quotes:

"there must have been human error as the safety systems worked as intended"

"the company was not "in charge" of allocating blame, as that was up to the investigating authorities."
