The LAW is that to drive a cart without plates means it is speed restricted to 20 mph.
I am often passed by carts doing at least 25-30. THEY ARE ACTUALLY DESIGNED TO DO 15 MPH. You only have brakes on the rear wheels.
There are some interesting drivers here. Turn signals are to signal you intend to make a turn-USE THEM. Follow the LAW. Stopping in the middle of the road to BS is common but is STUPID-you can cause an accident-PULL OFF THE ROAD.
Hi suesiegel: Speed is a catchall for all accidents but it doesn't explain inattention, misjudgments distractions ,etc. I have not been around a cart going 30mph however let's suppose a cart is maintaining that speed in a diamond lane when a car comes along drifting into the carts lane striking the cat driver. Is speed the cause?
