I also never go over the center line when driving an automobile. That is dangerous. I will never understand why drivers move to the left of the center line when a golf cart is coming up on their right in the MMP. There is room for both of you unless you are driving a huge truck with a wide load.
Pedestrians always have the right of way and golf carts are low man on the totem pole. Golf carts have to yield for anything and everything. If there is no one in site there is no reason why you can’t move over. If another cart is coming you need to come a complete stop and wait for the other cart to pass so you can then drive around the walkers. The walkers do not have to leave the path. Of course if they know it is you coming they might want to hide behind a tree or stone wall. Unbelievable.
