They are more safe than cars because of lap restraints and multiple wheels to allow the cart to go upside down.

But "freak accidents" do happen.

Very rarely though.

They are safe if you ride safely. I heard of these two teenage boys that dared each other to unbuckle and switch seats with each other at the part where you first go up and up at the top where it stops. But... they both fell. So there's your lesson on roller coaster safety! :)

Roller Coasters have about a 00.2% chance of crashing. That is because they are engineered for about 3 months.

In Small doses they wouldn't cause any harm. If ridden to frequently there may be a chance of a health problem occurring. Roller coasters can cause the release of adrenaline which is natural in the fight or flight response.

If they aren't tested and checked then they are bad. Also if they are more than 3 G's they can be deadly. But they're checked a lot. So don't be afraid, just have fun.
