Minecraft mine cart troubles

Question

I am attempting to make a MC roller coaster -witch I have done before- and for some reason when I power the tracks, the mine cart shakes back and forth and won't move forward or let me ride in it. I currently am playing 1.8.8 for the PC

Since the 1.8 update powered rails and activator rails behave differently when used for powering a mine cart track. Using activator rails causes shaking and, sometimes, ejects the player character from the mine cart. You only need the activator rails to activate carts, but they shouldn't be used continuously. Powered rails should be used for increasing or decreasing speed.
