  • Ride-Related Fatalities
    Ride-Related Fatalities 1. Numbers and Causes of Fatalities According to the most recent report of the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), between 1987 and 2000 there were 51 amusement park ride fatalities in the United States. This is a very, very small number. As discussed below, many common activities are more likely to cause fatalities. The total of 51 fatalities itself is misleading as an indication of ride safety. Of these 51 fatalities, about one-third were due to rider error and another 10 percent were due to pre-existing medical conditions of the riders. In order to understand the data, the 51 fatalities are individually listed below. There are links to the press articles describing the accidents. This paper assigns causes to the fatalities as falling into one or more of eight categories. The causes can then be summarized as follows: Cause of fatality Number Rider error 17 Operator error 10 Pre-existing medical condition 4 Design defect 3 Accident 5 Unknown 11 Occupational death of worker 1 This can be shown in percentage form as follows: file:///C|/Documents and Settings/Owner/Desktop/samples/Park Safety Site-sample/Park Safety Site 3.htm (1 of 14)10/3/2006 10:25:23 AM Ride-Related Fatalities Causes of Fatalities MF Accident caused by a ride which malfunctioned RE Accident caused by rider error.
