I've also had a car turn in front of me with no warning (no signals) causing me to stand on the brakes to avoid hitting her. I believe a cart going straight has right of way over a car turning. Just as if you are on foot crossing a side street, a car doesn't have the right to run you over by deciding to make a turn into you. However, size does matter. I don't walk into car traffic and I practice defensive driving. As I've said before, you're in a vehicle that only goes 20 mph. How big a hurry can you be in? Enjoy the scenery and watch out for the other guy.
