Would you stay away from a dive shop that had an accident?

I guess the real question is how much are you relying on the dive shop for your safety while on a dive?

but you're sure sharing closed minded ideas regarding dive sites

No, every dive sites had it's value.

Yes, as independent diver, safety depends mainly on myself. In general, the dive shop can affect the diving experience, not whether I can come back alive. But if the dive shop has a better safety record, their guide is more "active", I will definitely choose it first.
This thread talks a lot about responsibility.

I need your opinion

Self-reflection I had a vacation about half a year ago and was in Thailand. I had booked a dive with a company. The following situation had occurred : I was insta buddy with someone . This woman just had her 6th dive after your OWD degree and already seemed very nervous on the boat. In the...

The dive shop did not explain the cause of the accident and keep silent.

Every dive shop does that.

I’m new to the dive industry but I’m not new to extreme sports and the high risk industry.

Diving is not an extreme sport or high risk.

Diving is not an extreme sport or high risk.

Diving is inherently risky due to the fact that humans cannot breath water.

I stated that I was an instructor in extreme sports and high risk to provide context that I have been in similar situations and have an understanding on the time it takes for an investigation and report to be released.

... an understanding on the time it takes for an investigation and report to be released.

Sure, wait for the report. lol

While the approach may have been less than tactful, the point that was being made is that with scuba incidents there is rarely a published report. The A&I forum here specifically allows for speculation because of that, so we can all learn from the kicking around of "what if"s and thought exercises on how to deal with the thinks we think happened

Respectfully,

What I told you, you wont believe... diving is not a high risk sport and most likely there wont be report that's helpful in any way. They'll either find that the victim drowned or had a medical event and drowned. And that's only if a report will be published.

What I told you, you wont believe... diving is not a high risk sport and most likey there wont be report that's helpful in any way. They'll either find that the victim drowned or had a medical event and drowned. And that's only if a repoprt will be published.

Thanks for expanding on your one liner.

I actually didn’t state that diving was high risk, only that is in inherently risky. I actually used similar terminology that PADI used on their site.

Again if you read my full comment I was providing speculation and assumptions which assumes there may be a report. Also that it is only my 2c (opinion) and not gospel.

Now instead of fixating and de-railing the OPs post how about we go back to providing our speculations.
