Default Accidents, paths

[QUOTE=TheDude;1356158]I have no problem with bikes and walkers on the paths (I was going to call them golf car paths but I can be fair).

My problem is this...

There are some turns and hidden areas that a walker may come up on a golf cart. I really do not notice this with bikes.

What gets me is instead of moving out of the way in tight situations, that they stand their ground and wave the cart away from them (and maybe into another cart).

Its like a Jedi mind trick.

Now the problem...

Walkers are not protected and they have to take their safety seriously. If it was me, and it was crashing into a walker or crossing into traffic and hitting multiple people, well, I am sorry.

Best to be careful and not get into an accident at any spot, the paths are for walkers, carts and bikes. A lot of dangerous situations are seen every day that I ride my bike. Well we are on land, on the sea, it is the responsibility of any vessel to take any steps possible to avoid an accident. Remember if YOU are walking or biking,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, a cart at 20 mph is moving at 29 FEET PER SECOND! On any path, while biking, I pull over for walkers and carts and other bikes, yep, just do anything to prevent and accident. Just forget right of ways, forget who has the right of way, YOU DO NOT WANT TO SPEND A WEEK IN THE HOSPITAL, NOT GOOD FOLKS.
BE SAFE, ALWAYS.
