Children under 12 not to ride on elevators unattended – expert
13:21 – 16.06.11
Children under 12 should not take elevators without an adult,
according to an emergency expert.
At a news conference on Thursday, Lusine Hovhanniksyan, a chief expert
at the Emergency Ministry’s department dealing with the technical
security of elevators, escalators, ropeways and merry-go-rounds, said
that the elevators built in the Soviet times were designed for
children above 13.
“As we are now bringing our standards closer to Europe, we have given
up the practice of fastening such notices near elevators,” she said,
adding that children under 12 cannot ride on elevators unattended.
