Because Golf Carts, bikes, walkers, every contraption on wheels, etc. come out of no where in the Golf Cart Lane. Get your rear bumper to them right away then make right turn.
You have good points, I should have been a little clearer. I do NOT go into the golf cart lane to get around a vehicle making a LEFT turn, I wait behind them, however if I am in my car and making a RIGHT turn, I will place 2 wheels in the golf cart lane so there is no one beside me when I turn. This is done after making sure the lane is clear.
I have to do this as I have been passed by a golf cart (in their lane), and when I looked at my speedometer I was doing 30-31 MPH, so I completely agree, 'they come out of nowhere'!
