Your Family May Have Right to Compensation after a Carnival Ride Accident

Summer is over so maybe you're done with trips to amusement parks like Worlds of Fun or Six Flags but there are still a lot of small town festivals that happen over the fall months and many of these festivals bring in rides to entertain the family. These carnival rides always bring up questions of safety and have you wondering how safe your child is.

In Louisiana, a 4 year-old child was seriously injured at the Louisiana State fair when he became trapped in the loading platform of the ride. According to reports from witnesses, the ride was reactivated by another child as the ride attendant was helping kids get off the Demolition Derbry ride in the Kiddie Land area of the park. The platform gave way, causing the child to slip and become trapped.

Thankfully the child was rescued and stabilized before being taken to a hospital and there is no indication how the other child was able to activate the ride.

Our experienced Kansas City Child Injury Lawyers know this situation raises a lot of questions about safety at these parks. Usually rides have strict rules that say you are taking a risk by riding and the park or fair has no responsibility for injuries. But what happens if someone is able to access a control panel without supervision? We know protecting your child is your number one priority and we want to help your family stay on its feet after a serious injury throws everything into a flux.
