No I did not report this incident because as I said you cannot fix stupid. Our cart is equipped with a speedometer and we were driving at 19 mph just before we were passed so it was obvious that the culprit was driving above the legal speed of 20 mph on the MMP. Oh and since he had no golf clubs on his cart he was not late for his tee time either.

As to using mirrors I ask you this. If you were driving on a city street would you consider passing someone on a blind curve? I certainly hope not! You would most likely stay in your own lane and then pass when conditions were safe. This idiot decided to pass not one but two carts at the same time in a corner and just before a tunnel entrance/intersection. It was amazing that everyone reacted in time and I commend the other drivers for their defensive driving skills. I also comment them for the eloquent use of the English language in expressing their displeasure to the guy that was in such a hurry. I think I learned a few new words.
