Courthouse News Service: SANTA ANA, Calif. (CN) - Safety concerns properly led Disneyland officials to bar a disabled woman from using her Segway to tour the park, a state appeals court ruled.
In 2006, Tina Baughman, who suffers from limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, called Disneyland to ask if she could tour the park using her Segway. Her disability causes a gradual weakening of the large muscles in her arms and legs, and while she uses a cane to walk short distances, she has difficulty getting up from a seated position and prefers not to use a wheelchair.
