Thank you.
The insurance business is getting more educated on golf cart safety. Travelers and others have probably learned that when you put the weight of a human body on the rear facing seat of a golf cart it can cause handling issues with the cart. Put 300-500 lbs. on the back of a rear facing seat cart and take a corner. When you do, the opposing tire will be barely on the ground if at all. Very dangerous. I actually witnessed one of these flip on its side because of this.
