I can remember when we could not drive our cart after dusk or before dawn. Golfers were actually ticketed for arriving at the starter shack before it was light enough. What a wonderful day it was when we could "stay out after dark"! I have maintained for a long time that anyone who drives a golf cart on the roads here should be licensed. The "rules" say 14 is old enough. WHAT??? How many 14 year-olds know much about the rules of the road? I think it is ridiculous that these kids can take off in Grandma and Grandpa's cart and not have a clue as to what they are doing. I just hope that we all exercise good judgement when driving our carts or we just might go back to being restricted after dark! Horrors!
