California Theme Parks Aren't Banning Screaming on Roller Coasters

After months of being closed, California is finally starting to reopen its amusement parks. The California Attractions and Parks Association – a trade organization that counts Disneyland and other parks among its members – released a plan that includes set of guidelines on what parks should and should not do. 

Some publications looked at these guidelines and wrote articles about it. Many of these articles assert that riders aren’t allowed to scream at all on roller coasters, such as the New York Post’s “No screaming on roller coasters under California’s COVID-19 plan.” These articles were shared on social media.
