Disneyland fights for right to operate unsafe coasters

`”Disneyland is fighting a California appeals court decision that its rollercoaster-like rides (Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, Matterhorn Bobsleds, etc.) must adhere to the same safety standards as public buses and actual railroads. The court decision would require rollercoaster operators in California to use ‘utmost care and diligence’ as opposed to merely ‘reasonable care,’ which is the current standard. I’m not quite sure how ‘utmost care and diligence’ is compatible with rollercoasters at all.”‘
