According to the CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission), amusement rides constitute one of the safest forms of recreation available to the public. Bicycling, soccer, skiing, watercraft, snowmobiling and numerous other recreational activities lead to hundreds of thousands more injuries and many more fatalities every year than those stemming from amusement rides of all types. Moreover, analysis of state amusement ride regulatory reports and CPSC data consistently shows that a substantial majority of ride related injuries are due to patron behavior, such as intentionally rocking cars, standing up, defeating safety restraints, sitting improperly, etc., rather than mechanical failure or operator behavior.
