Had I been going 20 mph instead of the 12 or 13 I was actually driving, I would have absolutely creamed them. 20 mph may not seem like much, but if you're in a cart hit by a 4600 pound SUV, the pure momentum will leave you seriously injured or worse. The driver then proceeded around the RB 180 to the EP Trail gates. BTW, this was not a very elderly driver, 40's, maybe 50's at most, I was close enough to get a good look.
So, for the vote of the day, was this plain ignorance, or was it an intentional "shortcut" to avoid driving up to the tunnel? For fans of "Hill Street Blues", "Let's be careful out there".
