When he managed to pass the golf cart that was going to slow for him he gave me the single finger salute
And thats how this started !!

I've been driving St. Charles and Bailey Trail everyday for about 5-1/2 years, you'll just have to get use to it. Starting a thread about something that occurs 2 or 3 times a week will get little old, carts passing carts and carts passing bikes happens everyday on those two streets.
I could mention just today on St. Charles, and this wasn't a case of inconvenience, it was a case of almost a golf cart become a hood ornament. I was southboard approaching Sterling Hgts Rec Center and a golf cart without using a turn signal or a hand jesture started over the white line no more than 20' ahead of my car while I was going 30 mph. I couldn't go left because a red Mustang was coming in the opposite direction, so I jammed my brakes hard without locking up. I didn't blow my horn, because I wasn't going to hit him, and I saw that he finally saw me in the mirror and started back to the right. After I passed I saw in my rearview mirror he made a left turn into the Rec Center. End of story, no one hurt, and I'm sure he'll look twice before making another left turn, or at least put on a turn signal and stick out his hand whether he sees anyone or not.
