Over the next few weeks, many Hoosiers will go on amusement rides at several local and county fairs, but before stepping foot on a ride, all fairgoers should be aware of some safety tips. Read all posted rules and listen to instructions from the ride operators. Officials with the Indiana Department of Homeland Security say to read all posted rules and listen to instructions given by operators. Also always keep all body parts inside the ride. Pull long hair back with a hair tie. Stay on the ride until it comes to a complete stop and do not board a ride with a visibly inattentive operator.
