It also prevents a shock that could cause injury or risk of drowning to those who fall into the sea.

    One of the fundamental elements when using these vehicles is that any person who travel in this type of artifact must wear a life jacket permanently. On the other hand, an issue related to the safety of those who use these jet skis is that no person under the age of 16 should crew it, it is illegal. Between the ages of 16 and 18, the displacement of the personal watercraft that can be crew must not exceed 400 cubic centimeters.

    If a person observes violations of the rules of use of a jet ski, more if they put the lives of others at risk, it is requested that the National Service of Coast Guard or the Public Force immediately, via 9-1-1.

    Denounce immediately

    In this sense, the authorities ask people not to be indifferent to these faults with jet skis and do not be satisfy with just getting out of the water or asking their family to get out; The right thing to do, to reduce the risks of tragedies, is to denounce immediately.
