*Water slides have considerable friction, so dingies are notorious for stopping in the middle of a level section and causing a traffic jam as the boats pile up behind the stalled boats. This most often happens after a safety cut out, when the lift hill stops working. When that happens, doubleclick "close" on the traffic lights to clear the track, then reopen it. |
