Amusement parks tighten chaperone policies in response to unruly behavior.

Kings Dominion amusement park in Virginia will implement a chaperone policy starting Saturday, requiring guests 15 years old or younger to be accompanied by a chaperone who is at least 21 years old after 4 p.m. The chaperone must have a government-issued photo identification with a date of birth at ticket entry and remain inside the park during their visit. The policy aims to ensure a safe and positive atmosphere for all guests.
