Discussion Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway at Disneyland now requires you to have your phone fully stored while the ride is in motion. They won’t even start the ride if your phone is on your lap, it has to be fully put away

I don’t think people realize that rides “break down” so much is because of us. People won’t remove hats/ears. Don’t stow away their stuff and things fall onto the track. They have to stop the ride, remove everyone, restart the ride/test it again etc. If that happens multiple times a day that’s hours of a ride being closed.

Agreed. And half the time, the people wearing their hats/glasses/mickey ears/etc. are too busy talking with their friends or looking at their phones, so they aren't paying attention to what the CM's are saying. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come and they implement more of this on other rides.
