Section 5:14A-9.13 - Voice communication and signal system

(a) Voice communication shall be provided between the ride operators at the entrance, intermediate points, and the termination of an amusement ride where voice communication improves control of the ride by reducing a hazardous condition created by distance or lack of visibility between these points.

(b) An additional operator and a signal system shall be provided where the operator of the ride does not have a clear view of the point at which riders are loaded or unloaded. The additional operator shall be stationed so as to be able to observe all areas not visible to the operator of the ride.

(c) For rides and attractions which require a spoken message of instruction or warning prior to operation, this message shall be given in a manner that is clearly audible to all riders prior to the start of each ride cycle. This message shall be in writing in the operation manual.

(d) Any code of signals adopted for the operation of any amusement ride shall be printed and kept posted at both the operator and signalman's stations. All persons who may use these signals shall be carefully instructed in their use.

(e) Signals for the movement or operation of an amusement ride shall not be given until all riders and other persons who may be endangered are in a position of safety.
