All of the following are required to conduct a proper Pre-Dispatch Safety Check EXCEPT:

• A. Operators/attendants visually confirm that all areas within their vision are clear.
• B. Operators/attendants must walk the entire ride area, including restricted areas, to ensure all are clear before every cycle.
• C. Operators/attendant must use mirrors, if provided, in the ride area to see into blind spots.
• D. Operators/attendant must use video monitors, if provided, in the ride area to see remote areas of the ride.

Answer: (B)

Before a ride starts, the safety check relies on confirming the area is clear without entering restricted zones. The core idea is to verify clearance through what you can observe from your position and with added tools, rather than wandering through every part of the ride.

You should visually scan the areas you can see, use mirrors to peek into blind spots, and rely on video monitors to view remote or hard-to-see sections of the ride. These methods extend your sight safely and reduce the need to step into areas that are restricted or unsafe to enter.

Walking the entire ride area, including restricted areas, would require entering zones you’re not allowed to access. That practice isn’t required and is typically prohibited for safety reasons. The other methods—visual checks, mirrors, and video monitors—are the proper means to ensure everything is clear before each cycle.
