It would be a nightmare.

I hate government regulation, but based on the posts in this thread, I would be willing to advocate a special written and road test just for navigating RBs in TV, with a license endorsement. You fail, you use your golf cart inside the bubble, and if leaving the bubble have a friend drive your car to the city limit and meet him there.
