Do not push on the gates... They will be opened for you are the appropriate time

OK folks this is not rocket science. The Air Gates are monitored by the rides control system (that would be an Allen-Bradley PLC 5/30 in this case) if it detects that the gates are not closed when they are supposed to be then it stops the ride delaying both you and everyone around you.

The other people around you have also paid go money to come here and they don’t deserve to be inconvenience because of your lack of maturity.

What I have always wanted to tell these idiots is
"The reason we have to monitor the gates with the control system is sometime we have guests with mental deficiencies and we need to look out for them so they don’t hurt themselves. So unless you are someone who needs special assistance because of a mental handicap then there is really no excuse for you to be pushing on the gates."

Kind of the same way you have to yell at them "Don't sit on the hand rails" or the ever famous "Stay behind the yellow line until "Whatever" has come to a complete stop" . ;)

it's like that new ride car system, the one that has no track and is computer guided. and it turns you to look where they want you to. drop something out of the car or put a foot down and it will stop the system and flash the operator consoles.
