I saw this thread and figured it was just the old car versus cart at stop signs/gates discussion, but this is different than that. I can say I honestly do not know the answer.

"seems to me" == "Alan does not know, but feels like chatting"

It seems to me the car driver has no right to "cut off" a cart as champion6 or talkhost describe. If not illegal it is certainly rude. The car should have waited for the cart if there was not room to pass and turn without making the cart stop.

This of course gets much trickier when there is a parade of carts. I would not expect the car to wait for the parade to take a right hand turn. In that case it seems to me, the car puts blinker on, the carts yield and the car "merges" a safe distance from turn.
