Scream if you dare!


Golden State authorities want to "limit" yelling on roller coaster rides after they identified the practice as a potential risk factor for coronavirus spread.


The California Attractions and Parks Association seeks the "ability to limit" the acts of "singing, shouting" and "heavy breathing" in addition to mitigating "loud environments will cause people to raise voice," it wrote in its "Responsible Reopening Plan." CAPA further added that "face covering usage and/or modifications to seat loading patterns will be required on amusement park rides to mitigate the effects of shouting."


The sentiment was echoed by the California Department of Public Health, which also said refraining from hooting and hollering leads to "lower risk" environments.
