My contribution to MMP safety. I will not speed. I will not text or talk on the phone while operating my cart. I will keep my patience with drivers, bikers, walkers, etc. regardless. I will not drive my cart if I am on medication that discourages me from operating machinery. I will not get plastered at a local restaurant/bar then risk anyone's safety anywhere. And I HOPE that when and if the time comes that I can no longer operate my cart safely due to vision (day or night), physical or mental impairment, slow reaction time, etc. that I will have the sense to let someone else do the driving.
Most of the above isn't what I would do, but rather what I do. I think it goes along way for a safer MMP ride.
