Safety is the Amusement Park Industry's No. 1 Priority
Safety is a partnership between an amusement park and its
patrons. Unfortunately, a majority of the injuries occur because the guest didn't follow posted ride safety guidelines or rode with a pre-existing medical condition.
IAAPA created a list of amusement ride safety tips for guest use:
Obey listed age, height, weight, and health restrictions.
Observe all posted ride safety rules, and follow all verbal instructions given by ride operators or provided by recorded announcements. Keep hands, arms, legs and feet inside the ride at all times. Advertiser Secure all loose articles, including wallets, change, sunglasses, cell phones, and hats. Do not board a ride impaired. Remain seated in the ride until it comes to a complete stop and you are instructed to exit. Always use safety equipment provided and never attempt to wriggle free of or loosen restraints or other safety devices. Parents should make sure their children can understand and follow safe and appropriate ride behavior. Never force anyone, especially children, to ride attractions they don’t want to ride. If you see any unsafe behavior or condition on a ride, report it to a supervisor or manager immediately.
