I lot of gates will open without opening the car window. Some are more sensitive than others and different windows may have an effect .
Excellent points, Downeaster. I had thought about using our ID barcode after it was announced that we'd have to go through the gates even in our golf carts. I too always keep my gate card handy in the car. However, I could just have a second gate card for my cart and wouldn't have to fish out my wallet for my ID card. I think you just changed my mind. Thanks.
