There are many that do not know or understand the law on this subject. Almost every day, in my golf cart, at such intersections I am waived through by an auto driver.
I happen to be one who will not go and just wave back. Most auto drivers wave again like,,,,no you go. I shake my head and fold my arms....they usually display being upset in one way or another......and then there are the horn blowers behind me. I wave and wish them good morning/afternoon/etc. It seems like an authority contest....sometimes 
Please remind your friends/relatives/visitors to not stop and wave golf carts through. One they are breaking the law. Second, other vehicular traffic may not be aware and third it sets up a danger on the vehicular roadway.
This was in the dot com news this morning and triggered this reminder.
There I have done my good deed for today...right?

There is a meeting once a month at the Savanna Center where you can directly ask these questions from the police. speed-right of way etc.
I ride a bike, drive a car and drive a golf cart. TRUTH we have some people driving around here that may never have learned how to properly drive or have long since forgotten.
As to golf cart right of way-THEY DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT OF WAY-SIMPLE. As to whether the person at the wheel of the golf cart knows the rules and will f9llow them. YOU HAVE NO WAY TO KNOW SO IT IS SAFE TO ASSUME THEY WILL DO THE STUPIDEST THING POSSIBLE.
