This is a really tough issue in America! On the surface, I believe persons who are unable to drive a car might be questionable driving a cart. Often times, you still need to drive on the public streets in TV. Granted, it's much slower and much of the time on cart paths.
Not being able to drive is a real issue for many seniors. Outside of major metropolitan areas, public transportation is at a premium.
I think there's no good solution today....
