Disney turns away visitors on Segways
Some disabled users of the scooters angered by ban.

Re: Disney turns away visitors on Segways
Well, the Segs arn't approved for medical reasons, so there isn't anything wrong with the ban. Plus, imagine all the problems with liablity with Segs romaing the park that arn't Disney owned.

Re: Disney turns away visitors on Segways
Two things:
1. Disney inhales audibly. 2. Why is it Disney's liability at all? If I bring a Segway in and run someone over, hit someone, break someone's leg, or do something else, I would think that I would be the only one liable... But IANAL... |

You wouldn't be the only one liable because they're legally responsible for anything that happens on their property. Thanks to the world of bogusly ridiculous, get-rich-quick lawsuits, Disney could get sued for a heck of a lot of money. I think we now all need to thank the lady who sued for coffee that's too hot. |

Re: Disney turns away visitors on Segways
Can we make a law against stupid lawsuits like that so people can just live normal lives without having to worry about getting sued for ridiculous things?

The US is the only country in the world where you can sue someone for nothing - in the rest of the world, if you file a frivolus lawsuit and the other person wins, then you must pay their legal fees
which pretty much put an end to nonsense lawsuits everywhere else on the planet |
