I was hit head-on by a car that came off the road at 50 miles per hour. Seven operations and one more fusion to be done this summer and I still bike. Some people like golf, I love biking! So get the hell away from ME!!!!
My wife has almost been hit by bicycles several times when out walking. Never had an issue with a golf cart.

Me? I rarely, if ever walk on the MMPs, so I can't comment on personal experience.

But when driving my golf cart, I've yet to have a problem with either bikers or pedestrians...
