If my count is right that makes 10 golf cart fatalities (POA reported 9 in a previous issue). And to my knowledge, and the writings of others, all the fatalities were caused by some form of ejection from the cart and the drivers hitting their heads on the pavement or the other vehicle.

Is Sgt. Wolfe still going to claim that seat belts should not be used in golf carts in TV? Does anyone know him well enough to bring the stats to him and ask?

I'm a results guy and so far it seems that using seat belts far outweigh not using them based on the real world experiences in TV. Not some old safety film they show about cart roll-overs.
