This would imply that they have it in their cars on the way into the park. That's hard to believe -- I've seen some of them drive.joanna71985 wrote:"Should be" being the key words. It seems most guests leave common sense in their cars before entering the parks.

Re: How to be a good guest
One thing I've learned last night is that driving in the Orlando area brings defensive driving to a whole new level, especially if you're on I-4 and this was at night, long after most of the traffic was off the roads.BRWombat wrote:This would imply that they have it in their cars on the way into the park.

Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.
We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Re: How to be a good guest
That is the only saving grace when flying in to visit WDW, we don't have to deal with the drivers!! My hats off to the bus, and other transportation drivers that have to deal with that traffic on a daily basis!!Shorty82 wrote:One thing I've learned last night is that driving in the Orlando area brings defensive driving to a whole new level, especially if you're on I-4 and this was at night, long after most of the traffic was off the roads.

Re: How to be a good guest
How to be a good guest: Read and actually follow the rules, and don't say "My kid has been on this ride a thousand times, and blah, blah, blah...." If you don't care that much about your kid's safety, what gives you the right to be a parent? Just because you CAN doesn't mean you SHOULD.
Obey the ride operator's directions; they know their ride better than you do, and what can happen if you don't sit down, sit as directed in the ride vehicle, keep all parts of your body in the ride vehicle, etc.. Height, and in some cases weight, restrictions are there for a reason. Same with physical limitations. Being able to ride is a priviledge, not a right. The ride rules are to protect you; we really hate having a guest get injured or killed on a ride because they chose not to obey the rules.
And don't sue us if you or a family member get hurt or killed on a ride; 95% of the time when someone gets hurt/killed on a ride, it was because they disobeyed the rules.

Re: How to be a good guest
Its very easy, go to DLR or WDW with the attitude that you are there to have fun, not get free stuff if its hot, or the line are long.
Listen to the CM's, ther are there for your safety and to assist you in having a good time.
Read the signs, and listen to the rules. If a CM tell you to stop doing something, stop! If you violate the rules, and are booted out, say thank you to Security for being strong enough to tell a guest that they are wrong, and need to leave for their own safety, and for not listening and obeying the rules!!
If you go with the attitude that it is the happiest place on earth, and that you want to participate in the fun, and not be an SG, you should not have any problem!

Re: How to be a good guest
Hey, you do enough other, related stuff here that I'll let it fly. At least, this time... However, you need to design a shirt for us that says "Notatourist". Now, how long until she comes and comments?Theme Park Where wrote:I've got them on my website at www.themepark-where.com. I'll stop plugging now! :twisted:
My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?
