Test Track Stalls at EPCOT, Guests Evacuated After 30 Minutes

Cast Members performed a controlled evacuation consistent with safety procedures on technically complex attractions.

Overview

  • Guests who reported waiting roughly two hours to ride said the vehicle stopped at an angle shortly after boarding.
  • Riders remained seated for about 30 minutes before Cast Members assisted them off the attraction, and no injuries were reported.
  • Maintenance assessed the halted vehicle and systems before evacuation, reflecting Disney’s deliberate safety-first protocol.
  • A short TikTok posted by user @bethwright541 documenting the stoppage went viral and drew same-day media attention.
  • Coverage notes Test Track’s complexity makes downtime more likely, and Disney may offer recovery gestures case by case, with none confirmed for this incident.
