Read and adhere to posted guidelines: Most rides have height restrictions. Some have weight, age and agility requirements. Some children cannot ride without an adult. People with certain medical conditions, including pregnancy, should follow cautionary notices and common sense. Do not ride if you are buzzed or drunk.
Follow the rules: Food, drinks, smoking and loose or sharp objects are not allowed on rides. Use all safety restraints. Keep hands, arms and legs inside the ride compartment at all times. Refrain from actions, such as vigorous rocking, that could cause a ride to deviate from its intended operation.
Look for the sticker: The state compliance sticker on each ride indicates the machine has met manufacturer, insurer or international testing and materials standards. The sticker is not an endorsement or statement of the ride's safe operation.
Assess conduct of ride operators: Are they paying attention? Are other riders being allowed to act unruly?
