Am I the only one who is concerned that there is a person operating a golf cart on the streets whose best vision is poorer than 20/70? And that she believes she is a better driver than many others? And that her concern is not that her vision impairment might make it more likely she creates an accident, but that somehow her insurance carrier might find out about the impairment and decline her claim?

And apparently she has even been told by her doctor NOT TO DRIVE A CART which is clear from her post

Quote:
However, if a doctor has said I should not drive a golf cart they may deny the claim
You don't include that line unless it happened

I have no problem with her driving on the golf course, but it is problematic that she is merging into traffic on Morse. If there is no legislation on minimal vision to operate a golf cart on the streets, perhaps there needs to be some enacted.
