In regards to those who truly are jerks though, I have quit waiting until the last minute to merge.

If there is an opening, even 100 yards (strong lob wedge ) short of the end of the designated cart/bike lane...I will get over in the car lane.

I have found it to be a lot safer than waiting until the last minute.
I agree. I don't wait until the end of the merge lane to merge either....easpecially this time of year. It is more dangerous for a golf cart to be stopped at the end of a merge lane waiting to merge than to merge a bit early and keep the flow of traffic going.
