Disney to settle Segway use suit
- Share via
Walt Disney Co. agreed to settle a lawsuit over claims that a ban on personal two-wheel transporters at its facilities violates federal disabilities laws.
Three residents of Illinois and Iowa sued Disney in November 2007 after they were prohibited from using the Segway personal transporter on family vacations at four theme parks in Florida. Disney agreed to acquire at least 15 newly designed electric stand-up vehicles that meet its safety standards, according to papers filed Friday in federal court in Orlando, Fla.
