I work in the amusment industry and most parks and traveling shows really do stress safety as well as appearance. But just like anything else there are those few who do not care its all about how much can I make and how little can I spend. Most of these types are out of business relatively quickly unfortunately usually only after an accident of some kind injures an innocent patron. As far the ride accident list do note that a large amount of those accidents occur outside of the US where alot of times there is little or no standard of inspection and regulation as there is here on a state and local level. And also note that most of the accidents in the US occur as a result of human error. Whether this is attributed to the customer, operator, or the persons setting the ride up. Everyone deserves to be able to enjoy themselves when they go to a park or fair. but it takes a combined effort of the park or fair employees as well as the patrons heeding the posted regulations for each ride. It has come to the point that everything has to be BIGGER, FASTER, and TALLER than the previous rides and that in itself creates more danger.
