English term or phrase: bumper-car fairground attraction
Jane Brown has a bumper-car fairground attraction, with which she travels around the country’s show grounds and fairs.
“Maintenance is very important to me. And I don’t just mean cleaning everyday. These bumper-cars need to be checked. They have to be technically spot on. Yes, safety comes first… absolutely. Once a year, my whole attraction gets inspected. If it passes the test, I get a DNV certificate. And really… I have to get this, otherwise I wouldn’t even be allowed to stand on the fairs.”
