If people carrying their infants on their lap in the carts could have experienced what I did, they would never do it. I worked that wreck in 1983 and I can still recall every detail about it to this day.
I remember when I took the golf cart safety class when we first moved here. The policeman described the dogs people would carry on their laps while on a golf cart as "air bags". Who would be so dumb to carry babies on their laps on golf carts ?
