One thing to think about....when your cart falls over on its side, it's not terribly easy to get out! The windshield on this cart was broken in half, well the top piece was. There was no way to really get out of that particular cart. One man did manage to stand, but the other wasn't in any position to do so. He was sort of crouched in one spot. Took a couple of strong people to help him get up.
The Caroline postal station has only one entrance for cars. In the back there is another exit for carts or people walking, but only one main entrance/exit. From what I could see, the cart on Stillwater was in the cart lane heading towards the gate. The cart that hit the Stillwater cart was coming out of the mail station and was about to turn, but I'm not sure in what direction....it hit the Stillwater cart. Mike said the back rear tire that was up, well, that particular section of the cart didn't look so very good.
