In that case several people got injured.
Our news said a guy fell.

| | | well they have 4 or 5 photos it looks like that car on the ground was on the track in a few photos.. my guess is when they were getting riders off they had to take the car shell off.

| | More news on it... Quote:
Two trains on the California Screamin' ride at Disney California Adventure bumped into each on Friday evening, leaving at least 60 riders with minor injuries.
The accident occurred just before 6:45 p.m. as one of the trains was coming was ending its ride and hit a second train that was loading passengers, said Michael Simpson, dispatcher for Metronet, which covers the Anaheim Fire Department.
Most of the injured complained of neck and back pain and some were being sent to local hospitals. Simpson said initial reports indicated that there were no serious injuries.
California Screamin' is one of the more popular rides at California Adventure. The ride is shaped too look like a silhouette of Mickey Mouse's head.

I love how he promotes the ride after such an accident.
So much for the happiest celebration on earth.

| | | What is wrong with disney? They need to learn safety, or at least figure out how to work their computers.

| | | Just think of how many people were sueing before this accident. That number just trippled.
Disney seems to be haveing some serious safety issues the last 2 years and if this keeps up who knows what might happen next. We could see another accident or more before the year is over.
