Walt Disney Co. has settled a suit filed by a woman who said she suffered back injuries on Disneyland’s Splash Mountain ride.

The suit alleged that on Aug. 8, 2000, an operator started the ride before Yvonne Traina, 67, was strapped in, throwing her rapidly backward. She screamed and the ride was stopped, throwing her forward, the suit said.

The suit, filed in May 2001, was settled Monday just before trial was to have started in Los Angeles Superior Court.
