Many attractions can accommodate a guest with a white cane or provide a basket or receptacle in which to place the cane in the ride vehicle. The cane may need to be collapsed on some attractions. On those attractions where the cane may become lost due to ride forces and present a potential hazard to other guests, the Attraction Attendant will hold the white cane for the guest once the guest is seated. The Attendant will have the white cane available as soon as the attraction vehicle is stopped in the unload area.
