Your'e stuck in line for a roller coaster, you wait for half an hour, and some kid in a wheelchair comes in through the exit and gets on after waiting what... two seconds? What's the point of even bringing a handicapped kid to an amusement park anyway, he won't be able to do anything on his own and he always gets to skip waiting in line, I say "Wait your turn like everyone else, you're not special...(well mentally maybe but...)"

And what's up with these wheel chair parking spots, I think wheel chair people should have to park further away (not like people in crutches or anything just wheel chairs) beacuse they are the ones who don't have to walk to the store or wherever they are from half a mile away on the other side of the parking lot.

Recent court challenges have prompted commercial and public operators of any services to make accommodations under the American Disabilities Act (ADA).
These accommodations were meant to reduce the disadvantages someone classified as "disabled" in obtaining any type of services.
So - what you wanted to ask was "does a line up at a roller coaster qualify for accommodation under the ADA"?
If there is no accommodation at all - this is in violation of ADA.
What is the level of accommodation to the ADA? This is up for debate - but certainly, we have seen some abuses such as disabled parking, line ups at various places, reduced charges (even free sometimes) and so on.
But, take a look at yourself first. We are physically fit, suffer no crippling disease or injury, and able to do a lot more things than these friends in wheelchairs. So what is a few more hours wait to allow them to enjoy what we take for granted - that we have few disabilities.
Give them the time, give them the seat. It is OK.
Some of them have gone through a lot. Especially their families and friends who have to take care of them for the rest of their lives.
Be nice to them. I know how they feel.

Dude.. it's only a queue for a rollercoaster.. can't you give a disabled person a break? You're there standing on two perfectly good legs while that person might have never walked before. Gosh.
