Some of these electric golf carts and bikes are virtually silent so you could easily have no idea you are stepping out in front of one coming up behind you.

Amen...the only way to walk amongst the increasing number of inattentive, idiotic cart drivers in TV is by walking against their travel. I can always (and I have had occasions to do so lately) dodge these drivers by jumping out of their way, rather than pray that they won't be distracted while beating down on me from the rear. If you're of the mind to walk with traffic while on the MMP, then when you get hit, and are injured or killed, don't go blaming your attacker for their lack of peripheral vision!! You are the problem, not them. Walk the paths with me for 5 minutes and you'll change your point of view...literally!!
