Unfortunately, most times it becomes a game of “chicken”.
The intent of seeing the traffic allows the walkers to avoid the traffic by moving on the grass as a courtesy instead of forcing the golf carts onto the oncoming traffic.
It is especially frustrating and dangerous when traffic is on both sides of the path the walker remains on the pathway forcing the traffic to avoid the walker and onto the oncoming traffic.
If a walker refuses to yield to traffic, than walk on the side with the direction of the traffic.
Then the traffic is required to avoid the walker as the walker strolls merrily down the pathway.

I agree that moving over into oncoming traffic is dangerous (and the opposite of smart). And since you seem to be admitting to this dangerous action, please stop driving.
