Regular posts about the round a bouts I always come to the same conclusion. Assuming that the people around you know what the rules are is a bit of a reach.
Assuming they know what the rules are and will follow them, is a major reach.

Being human, we see, we notice people doing stupid things. The most people driving, reasonably safely, we do not even notice.

Might be interesting to discover how many people on the roads around here could pass a driving quiz or a drivers license test. We've all seen it. How many people slow down when they see a cop? How many of us would scream if the police suddenly started strict enforcement? Be honest with yourself-turn signals? Full stop at stop signs? Posted speed? Safe speed through our congested neighborhoods? People walking on multi modal paths in places where there are side walks. People stopping in the middle of the road to gossip. People walking in golf cart tunnels. I'm sure I left out plenty.
MMP's pass through tunnels, not golf cart paths.
I have not seen a tunnel signed 'golf carts only', there may be some, but I have not seen any.
As dangerous as it may be, pedestians, cyclists are not breaking any rule by using the tunnels, only the self preservation rule!
