JERUSALEM (AFP) – Amusement parks are in the crosshairs of a new amusement park safety law which would force them to provide video surveillance to police, a top amusement park official said Tuesday.
“We’re not saying they’re not safe, we’re just saying that it’s a bit difficult to have a clear picture of what they’re doing,” Amusements Park owner Ronan Eichenberger told AFP.
“If you have a large amusement park that attracts lots of visitors, like the theme park in Disneyland, and it’s possible to track down a lot of these people, it’s difficult to be sure that they’re safe.”
And that’s the reason we need to be able to film everything.
“Eichenberger said the law, which is currently under consideration by parliament, would be the first of its kind in the country.”
When we started this project we thought it was a great idea,” he said.”
I can’t even imagine how it would have been done in a few years time if this was the case.
“It’s hard to know how many people are out there who have gone through this process, but the law is a step in the right direction.”
Eichengers amusement park is in the central Israeli city of Tel Aviv, a city that has seen a spate of terror attacks in recent years.
In December, two men were shot dead in a Tel Aviv cafe after shooting two people in the neck.
