The Florida Department of Transportation has begun the process of regulating Walt Disney World’s monorail, eight months after Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill giving the state authority to inspect and oversee the privately owned transportation system.

Short high heel boot meatball doing short meatball things.
Governor DeSantis is doing everything he can to get back at Disney.
Sounds like retribution to me!
DeSantis is a piece of crap.
A Monorail doesn't need safety standards. Who cares if people die in an accident?
Enquiring minds need to know if Teacups can continue on decaffeinated dreams.
65 years one death.
Pretty damn safe.
Now they try retaliation using the Disney company's own safety manuals against them.
Not smart De Santis….
Now this is the small government that i love!! Less government less regulation!!! um wait huh?
Too much government already.
Who wants to bet the state minimum requirements will be the same or less then Disney? The Disney Train is also a transportation system. But of course the reason they didn't go after that is they would then have to go after EVERY private railway in a theme park in FL. And since this was a direct attack on Disney… Republicans, the party of regulation in favor of private business, unless you criticize the government.
in the state of wisconsin, public/ private doesn't matter . carnival rides are inspected for safety along these lines . this keeps companies on the up and up. ignoring maintenance, ,disabling safety features to just keep it running till we can fix it is a no go. I agree with desantis, you may not like his reasons, nor will I comment on what they might be . i can see this as a way to make sure what your riding is safe.if disney is not hiding anything what's the problem?
Disney has generally been ahead of the game with just about everything. The first 911 emergency telephone service in Florida was operated by Disney for Reedy Creek Emergency Services. Disney has its own telephone company, which operated the 911 system. The Disney-owned Vista-Florida Telephone Company was the world's first all-electronic telephone system, which featured a call back feature which would have the system call back a busy number as soon as it was free.
For the monorail, they built in every conceivable safety and emergency feature to ensure passenger safety and emergency escape in every conceivable situation. They know what they're doing and have a hella better safety record than any government agency.
Lock up Ronald “McDonald” DeStupid for impersonating a human!
The state should have been regulating that system from the very beginning.
DeSantis needs to be regulated more than anything in that state. He's Trump's twin brother when it comes to being morally bankrupt.
Rhonda Santis loves getting Big Government involved in people's lives.
Here’s the dig. Florida DOT will need to be trained by Disney.
With Disney's losses, probably a great idea to make sure they're not scrimping on maintenance. Maybe an independent contractor should be checking out the rides too.
So safteyregulatios are retaliation?
FDOT also regulates Brightline, which is very private.
Traitor trash Ron DeSantis will soon be an ugly and unpleasant memory along with the pervert Donald Trump.
Using the force of governemnt to foist useless regulation upon a business? How very republican of you Ron.
How the monorail wasn't under inspection before is pretty concerning
I trust this as much as I trust Arkansas to regulate uteruses.
All you need to do is to look at many trips or miles travelled vs death and injury to see that this is absolutely a waste of taxpayer money. This might even save Disney money as it cuts back on its own internal safety inspections. 😂
DeSantis would be so much more chill if he would just come out of the closet
All we have to do, is survive two more years than this little want to be dictator will be gone. Probably the only reason Disney stayed n Florida.
FSU doesn't understand why they were left out of the invitational? Disney owns it.
Florida should have trains that go directly from the airports to the theme parks like Disney and universal. They should be included in the price of admission or their hotel package.
The GOP opposes the regulation of businesses, except when they don't like the business in question.
its a political stunt by the governor.
Those monorails are in better condition than Florida’s own transportation
I thought the GOP wanted less regulation … 🤔
DeFascist is just pandering to his bigoted fat right base with this nonsense.
At $250m a piece, disney isnt going to replace them any tome soon. They'll run them until the doors fall off, and then will keep running them. On this note, they are in better shape than most other similar transit system in the state. The one in jax is on its last legs and it is a newer system
If the state involved sounds like safety will definitely go by the wayside.
Shut it down for trafficking children
Blame tRump, DeSantis, and MAGA.
Well Disney World will survive this everyone can see what this is even those that hate Disney come on universal now gets there on special district a few months ago haha I mean come on you cannot tell me it’s not retaliation. Politicians come and go and let’s attack a place that brings everywalk of life joy on some level I pity Ron Dasantis, but well hopefully he will see the error of his ways.
so they basically want to know how disney has done it for fifty years… DeSantis is a loser
Miss the days that you could ride in the front of the monorail.
The Republican War on Disney continues. I hope any business thinking of moving to Florida is paying attention.
Meatball Ron still at it? He's been pretty quiet for a while.
The only reason Desantis came after Disney was that they withheld funding for his campaign that they would have given to any other candidate. It is the height of corruption.
