This happened to a friend and me a few years ago as we were bicycling down the long tunnel entrance on the multimodal path on Morse Boulevard north of Soaring Eagle. There are very high cement walls on both sides. I was behind my friend when a golf carter passed us going down the entrance ramp, I yelled at my friend to watch out as I knew if another golf cart came out of the tunnel this crazy cart driver would save herself by taking out my friend. Too much! There was no where for anyone to go if a cart had come out of the tunnel. The cart driver just got by my friend at the entrance to the actual tunnel. If my buddy hadn’t slowed down the cart would have hit him. Extremely reckless, almost unbelievable behavior. Some people do not like to slow down and see walkers and bicyclists as nuisances and speed up to pass them no matter how dangerous the situation with total disregard for their safety.
