Good point. We've been here two years and while I think there was an article or two about a death from a golf cart accident, there certainly have not been 18.
UPDATE: From the study, death or disability means death, obviously, and " Neurological injury with brain or spinal cord injury, or sufficiently severe to require transfer to a Level 1 trauma center." While there may not have been 18 deaths, there could have been 18 serious injuries.
