Wondering if some carts may not be designed to manage the long climbs over these bridges?

As far as designed, they are, most of them, designed as GOLF CARTS. Some add seating for four. All are sped up, the design is for 12 miles per hour. Average weight say 180, that is now 720 lbs of added people. It is not just the climbs.
On the way down the weight shifts forward. Still carrying that 720 lbs and for most you only have brakes on the rear wheels.
Adding a fancy body? It is not now a sports car. It is a golf cart with a fancy body.
