Will you be impacted when a cart, with inadequate brakes, going 28 miles an hour plows into you?

Last summer, I was riding my bike (after stopping at the stop sign) near Glenview CC. I was on my side of the street and a golf cart, going well over the limit, came around the bend toward me. He was going too fast to negotiate the slight curve in the roadand was unable to stay in his own lane. He came into my lane, toward me and actually was up onto the two left wheels of the cart. (the right wheels were off the ground) He nearly flipped it over right in front of me. I hit the curb trying to avoid him.

He never stopped or offered an apology, just kept going with the petal to the metal.
