Amusement Park Regulations
Unfortunately, the Consumer Product and Safety Commission (CPSC) is not allowed to monitor accidents that occur at fixed-site roller coasters. Because of this, amusement parks like Six Flags and Universal Studios are not monitored for civilian safety by outsiders. While amusement parks have an invested interest in ensuring the safety of their riders, accidents still occur.
Determining who is responsible for an accident can help increase safety precautions and enable injured parties to file suit for compensation. Typically, injuries sustained at amusement parks fall under four categories:
- Product design or construction error
- Consumer behavior
- Operator mistake
- Mechanical error
All cases of injury at an amusement park should be investigated for liability.
