We need to at some point recognize the issues being addressed or not is the small perecetage of golf cart drivers behavior is the root cause.....and until and or if that is changed the safety efforts will have little or no impact as it is the major unsafe contributor.
Based on your thesis of personal responsibility, there would be no need for safety belts in cars because we all drive responsibly. There would be no need for traffic signals or lane markings on the highways. There would be no need for warning labels on products because we are do the right thing and use products correctly. But we don't.

Safety devices, warning labels, traffic lane markings, etc. are there to protect us from others, as well as ourselves.
