Far too often, I have seen a dangerous design attempted and the person responsible for the design claims the safety department didn't do their job.   This if the company even has a department such as this. Sadly, this behavior is now a big part of our culture.  That is, it someone else's problem and product safety is a hindrance to my creativity and ingenuity. 

Making the designers responsible for the safety of the design (as opposed to the safety of what is shipped, over which they have no control) immediately eliminates any claim that it's not their problem and/or cramps their style.
