We love to use the cart. Our experience is that on trips of 5 or 6 miles the cart is faster than a car and our cart is a 19 mph cart, not supped up.
We live in Belvedere and can get to all the shops and restaurants on 466 faster in our cart than the car also the parking is easier. Also seems quicker to get to LSL and we normally park on the square or very close. When we go to SS we take the cart because we like the time together and its easier to park.
The accidents while bad are statistically very small. I think there are now over 40,000 carts and just 10 fatalities in the past 10 years.
Get a cart and enjoy.
