There must be a state or two in the USA which teaches to walk with traffic.
You can't see what's coming and since U R old, you can't hear what's coming.

I have to disagree. I think it makes more sense to walk where it's safest. I see people walking into oncoming cart traffic at curves that are planted right up to the blacktop. No where to go when carts come around the curve not expecting to see people in front of them. And if another cart is coming in the other direction it's a potential nightmare! If they were on the other side of the path there is about 20' of grass they can easily strip into if needed. My .02.
