A safety system is disclosed to provide safety to a user while traversing an amusement attraction. The safety system may include one or more safety mechanisms for attachment to a user and a track system. The one or more safety mechanisms may removably couple together. The one or more safety mechanisms may include additional features such as speed controllers, track engagement systems, among others to assist in the traversal of the safety mechanism through and across the track system. 1. A safety system for coupling a user to an amusement attraction comprising:a safety mechanism having:a chassis;an aperture in the chassis, the aperture configured to accommodate a portion of a track;at least two wheels proximate the aperture, the at least two wheels configured to contact the track when the track is positioned in the aperture;a handshake mechanism configured to secure a second safety mechanism.2. The safety system of claim 1 , further comprising the second safety mechanism.3. The safety system of claim 2 , wherein the second safety mechanism having:a body defining a planar surface;an extension from the planar surface.4. The safety system of claim 3 , wherein the handshake mechanism comprises rails to support and contact the planar surface of the second safety mechanism.5. The safety system of claim 4 , wherein the rails are positioned to define a space between the rails to fit the extension of the second safety mechanism.6. The safety system of claim 5 , wherein the handshake mechanism comprises a securing mechanism to obstruct the space between the rails and prevent passage of the extension past the securing mechanism.7. The safety system of claim 6 , wherein the securing mechanism comprises a spring loaded latch.8. The safety system of claim 1 , further comprising the track.9. The safety system of claim 8 , wherein the track is configured with a downward slope configured to permit a user to traverse the track using gravity and handing from the safety mechanism.10. ...
