Golfing eagles-I agree with you. The slow drivers in a golf cart are probably the same slow drivers you see driving in the left/fast lane. These same people get passed on the right but refuse to move to the slower lane for some unknown (mental) reason.
People don’t understand it’s not the speed that kills you it’s the stupid driving that people have to do to get around thes slugs.
In Germany, if you are in the fast lane on the autobahn going 150mph and you see a car approaching, you have to pull over, not the car going 200mph. If you don’t, you get a hefty fine or drivers license revoked. You can’t pass on the right in Germany, nor are you allowed to flash your brights to tell the person to move over. We should have these same laws here.
I think I’ve taken most turns on the golf cart paths here at 20mph (except a few 90 degree turns) with no issues of tipping over. I have also been on these same paths behind a golf cart driver doing the turns at 10mph. What’s really funny about the slow golf cart drivers and slow car drivers is that they don’t want you to pass them. Hey go so slow around the turns or straights that you can’t pass, but once you get a passing lane or a long straight, they sped up so you can’t pass.
We all have to be somewhere at a certain time and none of us any to leave an hour earlier because you might have to ride behind someone going really slow.
If you have people behind you either on the road or on a mpp, move over so they can pass, and if you are slow in a car, don’t drive in the left lane
