First day of no smoking or big strollers - anyone notice a difference?

Hi everyone!

Just curious if anyone is at the park today and noticing a real difference with the new policies officially in place?

Frankly the stroller policy is not that restrictive. We used to have our own double stroller and it would have easily fit the new restrictions at Disney. I suspect the only strollers you are going to see hit with this are going to be the jogging strollers that are designed to have two kids sitting side by side. Now if they would only find a way to limit the motorized scooters, I've been hit by a lot more of those than I have with strollers, probably because half the people don't really need them and just rent them for first time at Disney and have no clue how to operate them properly.

This is how I see it..

People know how to push a stroller.. even in crowds, but (anecdotally) a lot of the people with the scooters only have them to avoid the miles of walking at WDW..

Very true. I find it annoying when someone simply doesn't want to walk so they rent them, I've heard a father and son talking about the fact that they had rented them simply to get around faster. Maybe if the rental scooters were equipped with governor that limited the speed to that of half dead snail, and the bumper included sensors that would deliver a painful shock to the driver if they bumped into anything they wouldn't be such a problem.

We already have a thread on this.
