May I laugh a little at the typo??  The lady was bucked off her HOUSE?!  How 
funny is that?
Sorry, Karen, couldn't resist.
As for solution to the problem, how about ride management making a sign with 
the rider's name on it in large letters, place the sign in the rider packet, 
and rider requested to place the sign under the windshield wiper blade.
