Cannondale built the original two-wheel bike trailer---the "Rear Bugger," as they named it. Some time in the early 1980s, a cyclist took a sharp downhill turn at speed with his infant child in the trailer, with the consequences you'd expect. He sued Cannondale on the grounds that there was no label on the trailer warning him not to do that. He won. Big settlement.
