Default understand your response, we were in a situation were we slowed and so did the car.

Pull out when safe to do so. Speed limit probably 25 on at Charles, very few vehicles go under 25 MPH makes it hard to safety pull out. another thing vehicles shouldn’t be pacing along side you. I either pass of stay behind until it safe to pass carts in diamonds lanes. And if diamonds lanes ends I never speed up at last minute to get ahead of cart.
The intersection ahead of us was a road to the right only and the diamond lane went right on through. We were going through the intersection and the car was turning right. In a normal traffic situation it would have been as if someone was turning right from the left lane. Just one of those TV things that depends on the drivers. If I was driving the car I would have waited for the golf cart to pass through the intersection, which caused the problem. The car slowed and so did we, thus annoying the driver following the car. We did let the car turn in front of us allowing me to observe the following drivers gesture of frustration .
