Don't worry about it. You and your dog will be just fine...
That is certainly the truth; not that black bears are not a frequent Florida sight, but absolutely your chances of getting hit by golf carts and bikes is a much more significant possibility... as is being hit in your golf cart by a car that DELIBERATELY chooses to use BOTH the auto lane AND the golf cart lane. That is a daily occurrence I've observed on Belvidere. Some landscape people also believe it is perfectly acceptable to use both the auto lane AND the golf cart lane ... happens way too often ! Takes a heavy dose of arrogance to disregard lives of others ! ?
