How later courts describe this case

  • “Subsequent formulation and refinement of the Cort criteria have indicated that a Congressional intent to create or deny the private remedy asserted is the weightiest factor.”
  • failure to warn of dangerous road conditions not an actionable claim under FTCA
  • negligent acts in “operation of a federal facility” not within Section 2680(a)
