在本周佐治亚州主题公园致命事故发生前的几年里，六旗乐园被指控未能妥善维护其园区，尽管有数百起关于其老旧刺激游乐设施受伤和故障的报告。根据CNN对公共记录和法庭文件的分析，Kyung Lah进行了报道。
In the years leading up to this week’s fatal accident at its Georgia theme park, Six Flags has been accused of failing to maintain its parks amid hundreds of reports of injuries and malfunctions on its aging thrill rides, according to a CNN analysis of public records and court filings.
致命事件。然而，Goliath 将继续保持关闭状态，因为 CNN 的调查发现。周一的事件远不是唯一一次质疑六旗乐园安全的时刻。对政府文件的分析显示，涉及严重受伤的乘客投诉已持续多年。以下是 CNN 的 Kyung Lah 的报道。>> 在佐治亚州过山车致命事故发生之前很久，六旗乐园就因未能维护其老化的刺激设施而受到指责。
Kyung Lah reports. FOR DEADLY INCIDENT. GOLIATH, HOWEVER, WILL REMAIN SHUT DOWN AS CNN INVESTIGATION HAS FOUND. MONDAY'S INCIDENT IS FAR FROM THE ONLY TIME SAFETY AT SIX FLAGS HAS BEEN QUESTIONED. AN ANALYSIS OF GOVERNMENT DOCUMENTS SHOWS YEARS OF RIDER COMPLAINTS INVOLVING SERIOUS INJURIES. HERE'S CNN'S KYUNG LAH. >> LONG BEFORE MONDAY'S FATAL ACCIDENT ON A ROLLER COASTER IN GEORGIA, SIX FLAGS FACED ACCUSATIONS OF FAILING TO MAINTAIN ITS AGING THRILL RIDES.
六旗乐园本周表示，我们致力于执行符合或超过行业标准的严格设施检查、维护和安全程序。但 CNN 对三个不同州的法庭文件和安全记录的审查揭示了维护问题、机械故障和伤害的报告。仅在加利福尼亚州，过去五年就在六旗乐园提交了近 300 起事故报告，范围从骨折到脱臼，再到背部和颈部伤害。这些记录未显示伤害的细节，包括是否被证实是由设施引起的。
SIX FLAGS THIS WEEK SAID WE ARE COMMITTED TO RIGOROUS RIDE INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE AND SAFETY PROCEDURES THAT MEET OR EXCEED INDUSTRY STANDARDS. BUT CNN'S REVIEW OF COURT DOCUMENTS AND SAFETY RECORDS FROM THREE DIFFERENT STATES REVEAL REPORTS OF MAINTENANCE ISSUES, MECHANICAL PROBLEMS AND INJURIES IN CALIFORNIA ALONE, NEARLY 300 ACCIDENT REPORTS HAVE BEEN FILED, RANGING FROM BROKEN BONES TO DISLOCATIONS TO BACK AND NECK INJURIES OVER THE PAST FIVE YEARS AT SIX FLAGS PARKS. THESE RECORDS DO NOT SHOW DETAILS OF THE INJURIES, INCLUDING WHETHER THEY WERE PROVEN TO BE CAUSED BY THE RIDE'S.
同样在加利福尼亚州，六旗乐园的 X2 过山车在上个月因 CNN 调查揭示 X2 乘客遭遇一系列死亡和伤害而被永久关闭。同一周，两名女性受伤。两人均被紧急送入脑部手术。一人仍处于昏迷状态。另一人仍在努力康复。>> 我无法恢复到以前的状态。因为，你知道，这是脑损伤。>> 在 CNN 报道发布后，数百人站出来声称他们也因 X2 遭受了头部创伤。
IT WAS ALSO IN CALIFORNIA, WHERE SIX FLAGS HAS. X2 ROLLER COASTER WAS PERMANENTLY SHUT DOWN LAST MONTH AFTER A CNN INVESTIGATION REVEALED A SERIES OF DEATHS AND INJURIES SUFFERED BY X2 RIDERS. TWO WOMEN WERE INJURED THE SAME WEEK. BOTH WERE RUSHED INTO EMERGENCY BRAIN SURGERY. ONE REMAINS IN A COMA. THE OTHER IS STILL STRUGGLING TO RECOVER. >> I WON'T BE 100% BACK TO HOW I WAS. EVER BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, IT'S BRAIN DAMAGE. >> HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE CAME FORWARD AFTER CNN'S REPORT CLAIMING THEY, TOO, SUFFERED HEAD TRAUMA FROM X2.
新泽西州的记录显示其他伤害索赔，例如，在六旗大冒险乐园的 El Toro 过山车，超过十名乘客报告受伤。一个月后，该州认定该设施结构受损。六旗乐园表示，该设施将在重新开放前接受检查。而在得克萨斯州，州记录显示涉及水上乐园的伤害报告，例如乘客从内胎上被抛出，导致头部受伤。
RECORDS FROM NEW JERSEY SHOW OTHER INJURY CLAIMS, FOR EXAMPLE, AT THE EL TORO ROLLER COASTER AT SIX FLAGS GREAT ADVENTURE, MORE THAN A DOZEN RIDERS REPORTED INJURIES. A MONTH LATER, THE STATE DEEMED THE RIDE STRUCTURALLY COMPROMISED. SIX FLAGS SAID THE RIDE WOULD BE INSPECTED BEFORE REOPENING. AND IN TEXAS, STATE RECORDS SHOW INJURY REPORTS INVOLVING WATER PARKS SUCH AS RIDERS THROWN FROM INNER TUBES, RESULTING IN HEAD INJURIES.
就在那个州，52岁的罗莎·埃斯帕萨于2013年从六旗游乐园的一台过山车上被甩出后不幸身亡。>> 过山车是这样上升的。等到开始下降时，安全带就松开了，她便直接摔了下去。>> 当时，六旗游乐园方面称调查结果显示设备并无任何机械故障。不过本周重新开放该过山车前，他们还是为乘客增设了更多安全约束措施。
THAT STATE IS ALSO WHERE 52 YEAR OLD ROSA ESPARZA DIED AFTER SHE WAS EJECTED FROM A SIX FLAGS ROLLER COASTER IN 2013. >> SHE GOES UP LIKE THIS. AND THEN WHEN IT DROPS TO COME DOWN, THAT'S WHEN IT RELEASED. AND SHE JUST TUMBLED. >> AT THE TIME, SIX FLAGS SAID THEIR INVESTIGATION FOUND THAT NO MECHANICAL FAILURE HAD OCCURRED. BUT IT ADDED ADDITIONAL RESTRAINTS FOR RIDERS BEFORE REOPENING THE RIDE THIS WEEK.
在佐治亚州发生戈利亚斯号过山车致死事故后，六旗游乐园暂时关闭了该设施，同时还关闭了全美各园区内其他9台类似的过山车。出于谨慎考虑，专家们指出目前监管工作存在标准不一的问题。>> 遗憾的是，目前整个行业缺乏统一规范。联邦层面尚未针对所有领域制定强制性的安全标准，监管工作仍由各州自行负责。
AFTER THE FATALITY AT THE GOLIATH IN GEORGIA, SIX FLAGS CLOSED THE RIDE, PLUS NINE OTHER SIMILAR COASTERS AT ITS PARKS ACROSS THE COUNTRY. OUT OF AN ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION, ONE ISSUE EXPERTS POINT TO UNEVEN OVERSIGHT. >> UNFORTUNATELY, ACROSS THE BOARD, WE DON'T HAVE A LOT OF UNIFORMITY. WE HAVE NOT FEDERALLY ADOPTED OR MANDATED STANDARDS IN ALL SPACES.
大多数大型游乐园运营商都自行承担安全管理的责任，也就是实行自我监管。>> 另外，去年有一起投资者提起的民事诉讼指控称，六旗游乐园疏于对园区基础设施进行维护，也未及时更新过山车的设计与开发工作。
IT'S A STATE BY STATE. MOST LARGE PARK OPERATORS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR OWN SAFETY. SELF-REGULATION >> SEPARATELY, AN INVESTOR CIVIL LAWSUIT LAST YEAR ALLEGED SIX FLAGS NEGLECTED TO INVEST IN BASIC PARK MAINTENANCE, INFRASTRUCTURE REPAIRS AND RIDE DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT UPDATES.
