I was suprised to find Disney does not allow Segways even for disabled patrons. To me that seems like discrimination. I think that if a person who needs some type of mobilization feels most comfortable with a Segway then they should have every right to use one. I have a feeling that this is not the last time we hear about this. While I don't personally know anyone who uses a Segway, I hope that those who do do not take this sitting down (no pun intended) and fight for their right to use their Segway at Disney. It's rediculous!
Also, this is a little off topic, but I feel that the use of Segways might be a little better than the use of wheelchairs. Often times in very crowded areas, like Disney, people in wheelchairs are often not seen when trying to get through a crowd since they are not at eye level. Having volunteered for many charities for sick and disabled children I have seen this many a times. These people are then struggling to be seen or heard so that others will get out of their way!
