As far as four wheel or hydraulic brakes, I don't care as long as the brakes are able to stop the vehicle going the maximum speed in an emergency. Standard two wheel golf cart brakes cannot stop a cart going 25 fast enough.



This is one of the problems with not having vehicle inspections in this state. I'm not a big government guy, but I have no problem with the state ensuring that vehicles driving beside me on the roads have the proper safety equipment.


Even in a state with annual safety inspections many people circumvent with fake stickers, friends in the business etc.
As a rule I know a beater on the road if I see it, I'll always keep my distance either far ahead or way back, depending upon my mood that minute.
