It's against the law to not have an infant in a baby seat in a car how can it be legal to have an infant on your lap while you driving in an open golf cart?

Insane!
Welcome to Florida!... When I first lived here (about fifteen years ago), I was once making a 90° turn outside a MMP tunnel and a woman was making the same turn going into the tunnel, driving one-handed and holding an infant no more than, say, eight months old. I was stunned—and then realized she may have been an idiot ... but there is no law against this form of idiocy....

Of course it's the adult's decision! But what difference does it make? Now THIS is a violation. Whenever my better half sees this, a call immediately goes out from us to 911, and there is a traffic control division that sends a deputy out to deal appropriately with this.

And for those who say 'It's none of your business,' how sad not to recognize that being cognizant of incidents like this and sharing them in a forum like this —that is, raising awareness—just might reduce the incidences of them. 'Just might,' no certainty, but worth sharing. No one is suggesting playing Mr or Ms Policeman....
