  • Title: Personal watercraft use by children and adolescents. American Academy of Pediatrics. Committee on Injury and Poison Prevention.
    Journal: Pediatrics; 2000 Feb; 105(2):452-3. PubMed ID: 10654976.
    Abstract:
    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.
