The "no touching" thing is a general legal precaution ... if someone is handled the wrong way they could easily bring on a lawsuit based on that alone. It is overlooked however when it comes to people's safety (their own or that of others). If someone sued Disney because someone knocked them out of the way of a moving float, I think the court would put them in jail for stupidity (or at least they should). I've had to shove a few people out of the path of moving churro wagons before to keep them from getting smashed. Given the other two options of either running them over, or stopping the wagon on a dime and probably throwing out the backs of 4 CMs the physical contact can be the lesser of the evils.

Come to think of it, for the parade thing, it really was less safe to take her back across, because one more step and she would have been on the other sidewalk, but taking her all the way back across was actually mosr dangerous, cus the floats were getting pretty close at that point.

the thing with parades tho, if we let one person get away with it, EVERYONE will want to get away with it, and we'd be spending all kinds of money on industrial gut remover to get people parts OFF of the whales.(floats)

Yeah, one of my favorite no touching things is when my boyfriend worked Autopia, kids would go out on to the track as the cars were arriving, but before their car had. He would pick them up and put them back on the pavement (sidewalk, I guess) and the parent would yell at him to not pick up their kid. His reply was always, 'fine, next time I'll let him get hit by the car'

there's nothing we can do to win that one, either way we're wrong.
