One should take precautions while flying kites to ensure safety for themselves and others.
- Don’t fly near people, especially young children.
- Don’t fly close to the roads. Landing a kite on a road could cause a serious accident.
- Keep clear of electric power lines, electrical signs, and TV and radio aerials.
- Don’t fly near airports.
- Don’t fly your kite in winds stronger than recommended.
- Never fly in stormy weather. Wet lines are conductive!
- Don’t underestimate the power of the wind. Always wear gloves when flying a hard-pulling kite. Although it’s unusual for dogs to attack kites while still in the air, always make sure there are no dogs around when you land your kite.
- Don’t let a young child fly a kite that needs more than a 30-pound flying line. Always accompany them on their first flights.
- Watch out for rocks and holes while running with your kite.
- Abandon a kite before risking your life to rescue it from trees or telephone poles. You’ll be better off buying a new kite in the long run.
Follow these precautions while flying kites and enjoy yourself.
