In my life, three families that I know were impacted as the result of drunk drivers. One was the family of a classmate while in grammar school. Her father lost his life in an accident caused by a drunk driver. The second person was my father's boss...again an accident caused by a drunk driver and a life lost. The third was the newly engaged daughter of a family friend. She and her fiancee had just returned from a date, they were sitting on her car, which was parked in the street. A drunk driver hit the car and she was killed right in front of her home. I have this thing for ANYONE who might be driving while under the influence.
My brother in law was a police officer...he was good and believe me it wasn't an easy job. Of course there are bad officers, but there are more good than not and each and every day they risk their lives to help keep us safe.
The law states no alcoholic beverages while sitting in golf carts...it's Florida law and probably the law in a number of other states. People, you're adults, stop responding like spoiled children who can't have their way. As sad as it seems, ignorance of the law is not excuse so now that those who didn't know, know, behave accordingly.
