Helpful video to help family members see what a first timer son helping his father use a ECV at WDW.

I just saw this video and I thought that it might help those with family members that might think that a mobility device would help another family member at Walt Disney World.

Michael the son, describes renting a mobility scooter for the first time for his father from Buena Vista Scooter and the experiences that he had with the renting, using it a Disney Pop Century Resort and the bus and park ride attractions and watching fireworks.

I think it is a very nice video for both a son and his father, the mobility scooter. It could be applied to any family member worried about using a mobility device for the first time at Walt Disney World.


I did mention to him that there used to be a handicap spot at DHS and how what he might do next time.

I decided to look at some of Michael's other videos. The video above was strictly about his mobility scooter first-time experience. The following videos, I copied the video start further into the video.

Like the one below enter Disney Pop Century resort.

Now, remember, this is a first-time son/father experience using a mobility scooter.

When it gets to the part of parking his EVC in the Disney Pop Century Standard room, I had to chuckle because I brought back memories that I had forgotten when I first tried to park my first rental mobility scooter. He tried several ways. He is a newbie, right. He could have parked it against the window, but he just didn't think about it at the time and he finally took off his basket and parked it front to back against the front window. Most of us would have parked it sideways to the window.

But give him a break...ha...ha...he is a newbie, had flight delays, had been up all day and arrived late in the evening.


The following videos just show a son/father visit to the parks using a mobility scooter and walking as the son explained, his father can walk, but now seven miles a day.

I just enjoyed watching a son and father enjoying WDW together from their perspective. I thought that you might like it too.



In the video below toward the end of the video, you can see what it was like to watch the MK fireworks from one of the handicap sections.

Thank you for sharing! It opens eyes to everyone who doesn’t use one!

I temporarily can’t put weight on my one leg due to surgery. I’ve used the store ECV a few times. People cut you off, kids stop in front of you as parents are clueless and it’s hard! I can’t imagine what Disney is like. We are going on January and I will be more aware of the scooters!
