Disney World mostly gets it right…mostly. But this one ride rule needs to go.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Almost all Disney ride rules are installed for safety purposes and we will ALWAYS advise taking them seriously. However, there are some ride rules that are geared towards the service of the entertainment experience instead of safety concerns. Some are unspoken, like how to successfully ride Space Mountain when you’re not a kid. Other rides, like Tomorrowland Speedway, are designed for smaller riders. But Tomorrowland Speedway’s rules state, “Racers who are at least 54 inches tall can drive their own gas-powered race car. Guests who are at least 32 inches tall may also drive their own cars as long as they are accompanied by someone who is at least 54 inches tall — a rule that not only focuses on safety, but the entertainment of others as well (you don’t want cars just stalled on the speedway, do you?). A specific rule we want changed at Disney’s Hollywood Studios caters around the enjoyment — or lack thereof — of other riders.
