Yokohama Roller Coaster Accident theme park officials to document inspection August 4 7:57
Last August, when a roller coaster vehicle collided with a previous vehicle at a theme park in Yokohama, and two people were injured, business was continued with the brakes of the collided vehicle deteriorated. Obviously, the police say that there is a problem with safety management, and even on the 4th, the two officials of the theme park will be inspected for suspicion of accidental accident on the job.
In August of last year, the roller coaster vehicle in "Yokohama Hakkeijima Sea Paradise" in Kanazawa Ward, Yokohama City did not stop at the exit point, collided with the previous vehicle and two men and women who were riding were injured slightly ..
When an accident occurred, the distance to the stop of the vehicle was long due to wear of the brake parts etc., but in the subsequent investigation, it was found that the employee was not good at braking. I found out that I was reporting to the person in charge of maintenance of the roller coaster and interviewed the investigators.
However, it means that sales were continued without taking appropriate measures such as repairs.
For this reason, the police have established a policy of inspecting the person in charge of maintenance at the age of 46 and the person in charge of a theme park at the age of 47 on the 4th day due to suspicion of accidental negligence due to work due to safety management problems. ..
In February this year, the operating company announced measures to prevent recurrence, including tightening the brake maintenance standards.
