Article 14B.

Amusement Device Safety Act of North Carolina.

§ 95‑111.1.  Short title and legislative purpose.

 (a) This Article shall be known as the "Amusement Device Safety Act of North Carolina".

 (b) The General Assembly finds that although most amusement devices are free from defect and operated in a safe manner, those which are not impose a substantial probability of serious and preventable injury to the public. Protection of the public from exposure to such unsafe conditions and the prevention of injuries is in the best interest and welfare of the people of the State.

 (c) It is the intent of this Article that amusement devices shall be designed, constructed, assembled or disassembled, maintained, and operated so as to prevent injuries. (1985 (Reg. Sess., 1986), c. 990, s. 2.)
