Select the following as part of the safety protocol:

- Always wear safety goggles when performing an experiment.
- Use caution when releasing the cars, being careful not to add additional force.
- Ensure that the track has enough room and will not interfere with others in your class.
- Report all accidents to the teacher.

Not part of safety protocol: "Ramps should be equipped with an incline as well as a decline for balance" (not a safety rule) and "Gloves should be worn to protect your hands when catching cars at the base of the track" (unnecessary and not typical safety guidance for this activity).
