Trying to make sure the road is clear behind you while making sure it's clear in front of you is much more difficult than making a straight crossing. Plus, you have a lot of traffic converging for the temporary post office, not just golfer traffic. It is a really bad situation.
For the carts that are southbound and have to turn left into HH, like the OP, you ONLY have to worry about the road being clear BEHIND you when you merge into the car lane. THEN, you can worry about the ONCOMING traffic to make your turn. You DO NOT have to do both at once.
