A ropeless elevator system includes an elevator car constructed and arranged to move along a hoistway and into a transfer station that is in communication with the hoistway. An electronic controller of the ropeless elevator system is configured to control the speed of the elevator car when at least when the elevator car is in the transfer station. A first detector of the ropeless elevator system is supported by the elevator car and is configured to send a first signal to the electronic controller at least in-part indicative of a presence in the elevator car. If a presence is detected the electronic controller outputs a speed control signal indicative of the presence.
