Default If you elect to participate in any non golf cart activity

do so defensively. This is a recommendation from a daily 2-3 mile per day walker (me!). While the majority of golf cart drivers are very attentive and take the proper care the others are very dangerous. They drive to fast and I am convinced some can not see....why else would they run up on a walker facing traffic and almost hit them?

So enjoy the multi modal paths....travel against the flow of the golf carts....and keep your eyes on the oncoming traffic.......and don't forget to wave.

Just as an aside I would estimate more than half of everybody on the path either waves or says good morning, etc. I do!!
