Sadly, yes. Sometimes the drivers just aren't comfortable with backing up, know the path goes all the way through with no tunnel, so use it to the next exit. The worst case I saw was when the car got stuck in the tunnel. I'd love to see the insurance report on that one.

Quite honestly, I've been known to start to take my car on a golf cart path out of habit. I drive my cart far more than I do my cart. To say that I've been extremely embarrassed is putting it mildly. Fortunately, I've never gotten further than my two front wheels.

I think there's something in the air in TV. You think you're in a golf cart, should be in a golf cart, want to be in a golf cart and, somehow, magically, your car becomes a golf cart -- until it touches the golf cart path and then it becomes a stupid car again.
