No turn signals are being used or if they are, are not being shut off so you don't know if they're going to turn or not. We have seen several close calls at intersections and carts making turns on 2 wheels. Slow down folks! Nothing is that important to put lives in danger. The carts are not toys.

I agree,my golf cart will run 20 mph. I think every golf cart that has ever followed me has passed me when I'm going 20 mph. Some of these golf carts will pass me going over 25 mph. Since I've lived here as a resident for 6 yrs. I've only seen 3 golf carts pulled over. People must set their own governor what they want it to run. Everytime I get something done to my cart at the dealer, they want me to sign a paper saying I'll let me reset or check my cart to see if it only runs 20 mph. Everytime I get it back it always runs slower. Personally I don't think it really does any good to have speed laws on carts that they don't even enforce. Also I don't think people on carts know what a STOP sign is, nobody stops, they slow down & go right on thru the sign. I'm surprise someone hasn't gotten T boned at one of the tunnels yet. People leave there turn signals on & people at the tunnel exit assume these people are going to turn. It was a bad design for the cart manufacturers not to put automatic disengaged turn signals on carts.
