3843 Since members of the general public using the Golden Gate Bridge with due care do not commit suicide by jumping from it, the lack of a suicide barrier is not a dangerous condition of public property; although a 3 &Mac184; foot high railing along the pedestrian walkway of the Golden Gate Bridge may present a foreseeable risk to members of the general public using the bridge with due care, that risk is not a proximate cause of the death of a person who intentionally climbed over it to commit suicide by jumping from the bridge.CitationMILLIGAN v GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE HIGHWAY AND TRANSPORTATION DISTRICT (Bridge Suicide) 120 CA4 1 [See: GovC 835, 830, 840.2; Chowdhury v City 38 CA4 1187, T/AT 11/95; Fredette v City of Long Beach 187 CA3 122]
