When I'm in this position as golf cart driver, I just sit there and refuse the offer to proceed. At many places, you really don't have a clear idea of what's coming the other way. And I'm certain the driver "waving you on" hasn't looked themselves to see what the oncoming traffic is like.

A finally, the person doing the waving is placing themselves at risk for a rear end collision. Not everyone is as aware as we are that people do this and may be suddenly surprised to see a car stop right in front of them for no apparent reason.

I say waiting a couple of minutes to make a safe crossing is well worth it.

The correct approach!!
