But I think that even if we were striped and lighted like midday, that we would still have about the same amount of accidents due to lack of driving skills, loss of vision, and ignoring good driving rules. Many people move here or visit here and have never driven a car and drive a golf cart. Many people drive with a snootfull. Many people have problems with uncontrolled anger and believe stop signs are just a suggestion. I have been stopped at a stop sign and have had another golf cart go around me. I will not mention the team insignia on his cart because I really made people mad the last time I did. BUT here's a hint. It is the state that has the most accidents.
I remember being astonished when I first moved here and read derision toward people who stopped at stop signs from someone who I really respected. I felt like an old stupid fart.
I simply do not drive my golf cart during the high season if I can help it. I drive it to play golf. period. And THAT of course is necessary.

Apples and oranges! Will always be drivers of all types on our roads. Suggesting that we should not make safety improvements is a poor position to take.
