What would change incentives of the goverment bridges

Reference no: EM13237067

Currently, it is difficult to sue the federal goverment unless it agrees to be sued. If the law were changed so that lawsuits (such as by victims of the collapse of the I-35W bridge) were easier, how would this change the incentives of the goverment to properly maintain bridges, road, and dams? How likely is the goverment to agree to such a legal change ?
