A golf cart driver escaped injury in a mishap Saturday at a tunnel in The Villages.
The Par Car golf cart got wedged in at Tunnel B-17 at about 12:30 p.m. Saturday at Southern Trace and Buena Vista Boulevard, near the Hawkes Bay Golf Course starter shack.
The man driving the golf cart began to enter the tunnel but a high-topper golf cart coming in the opposite direction was “hogging” the tunnel, according to a witness. The driver of the Par Car swerved to avoid the collision, but got wedged in the tunnel.
Community Watch was on the scene directing traffic away from the tunnel. |
This was my husband. The woman driving towards him in the tunnel was DISTRACTED and over corrected her turn to avoid hitting the wall. In so doing, she veered towards my husband. He turned to avoid getting hit. He was just turning into the tunnel. The right front wheel caught and climbed the wall. It was standing on its back end and was wedged there. 8 men couldn’t budge it! After 45 minutes, it was winched out by Kart Aide.
Fortunately, Ron was unhurt.
The cart is totaled. The frame, axel and windscreen are twisted. The body is broken from metal pressure points giving way.
The driver continued on her way without stopping.
How kind of her.
It is a Par Car. Now, it’s a heap.
