Good grief, imagine trying to take a walk and having to step off the path every time a golf cart comes by. That's just ridiculous. The cart can make room without hindering their travels at all. The walker cannot.
I have already said I would give way and avoid hitting a pedestrian. Did you read that part of my comments?

Here is more on this topic from a few years ago..........
