However, it is the responsibility of Six Flags to adopt preventative measures which should stop slips and falls taking place. This includes erecting warning signs in places where a known hazard exist or clearing up hazards quickly so slips and falls are unlikely to take place.

In order to be eligible for personal injury compensation you need to prove that you are not at fault for the accident and injury that took place at Six Flags. You will need to gather witness statements, provide photos and write a description of how the accident and injury took place.
