I fully understand that but they REALLY need to look for oncoming carts or they will end up with about 6 INCH social distance spacing from the windshield !!
A lady did exactly the same thing to me on Moyer Loop today, EXCEPT there were no other pedestrians on the sidewalk. She then played "chicken" with me and refused to get back on the side walk as I approached. Since I was driving right into the sun, I almost couldn't see her. Suicide by golf cart????? Mental Illness?????
And also, Florida statute 316.130 sec 3 states that no pedestrian can walk in any paved area intended for vehicular traffic when a sidewalk is available. Hope she got where she was going in one piece.
