Yesterday about noon I was coming up from Hillsborough and northbound on Morse headed to Colony. At the fire station I went east on Moyer and a Yamaha gas cart pulled out from the putting green in front of me. I turned left by the new Walmart intending to cross 466A at the light. The golf cart also turned left, he's only going 15 mph the whole time and I'm thinking he's going into Walmart, no, he keeps straight ahead, he's going to turn left at the Vet's and take the tunnel, no, he pulls right up to the light at 466A. The light was red, so I got out of my car and walked up to him and said, unless your cart is street legal, you're not allowed on 466A, you need to go down to the tunnel. He looked a little bit lost and was probably about 80 years old. He said, I didn't know that, I guess I'll turn around, which he did.
