Dodgems/Bumper Cars

Hello fellow pacemaker buddies!

Just out of interest, should people with pacemakers avoid the dodgems/Bumper cars at an amusement park?

Do they have a noticeable effect on the pacemaker?

Just curious, thanks. :)

I've done them many times! I wouldn't do it the first 6 months or so, but after that it's fine.

Just was surfing the Internet and found this on Pacemaker People:

Bumper cars. (No, I’m not making that up. In fact, many amusement park rides can interfere with your device but bumper cars is the worst.)
