OK, dumb question I know, but I've started going to Alton Towers with a friend who has cerebral palsy and uses a manual wheelchair. IF, by some unfortunate twist of fate we needed to be evacuated from a ride, what would happen?
Would I be expected to get her off the ride alone? She can't do steps so how would we get down from a lift? Also I wear glasses, but obviously not while riding, so I feel I'd be hopeless help in that situation.
If anyone has been evacuated from a ride, can you share the experience, as in what happened? If anyone with a disability has been evacuated, your comments are especially welcome.
I'd just like to know so that if it happens I'm not totally useless and can reassure my friend. Also, she can walk some distances, what would happen if you were paralyzed??
So many dumb questions I know...
