They've already proven that they are taking this seriously with the post ride area. It sounds like it has been very well done.

It was such a nice introduction to the ride, and now it's gone in favor of a stupid warning for stupid people.

There's nothing wrong with the little cabs themselves. From the PDF that was posted, it sure looks like they'll be replacing whatever runs or pulls all those cabs.
