The use of personal watercraft (PWC) has increased dramatically during the past decade as have the speed and mobility of the watercraft. A similar dramatic increase in PWC-related injury and death has occurred simultaneously. No one younger than 16 years should operate a PWC. The operator and all passengers must wear US Coast Guard-approved personal flotation devices. Other safety recommendations are suggested for parents and pediatricians.
在过去十年中，个人水上摩托（PWC）的使用量急剧增加，其速度和机动性也同样如此。与此同时，与个人水上摩托相关的伤害和死亡人数也出现了类似的急剧增加。16岁以下的任何人都不应操作个人水上摩托。操作人员和所有乘客必须穿戴经美国海岸警卫队批准的个人漂浮装置。还为家长和儿科医生提出了其他安全建议。
