RULE ER 407
SUBSEQUENT REMEDIAL MEASURES
When, after an event, measures are taken which, if taken
previously, would have made the event less likely to occur,
evidence of the subsequent measures is not admissible to prove
negligence or culpable conduct in connection with the event. This
rule does not require the exclusion of evidence of subsequent
measures when offered for another purpose, such as proving
ownership, control, or feasibility of precautionary measures, if
controverted, or impeachment.
