Its not enough to have a three point seatbelt system. All golf cart drivers and passengers should be required to wear helmets. It should also be law that all golfcarts have side doors that lock and are equipped with airbags. The speed limit should be reduced to 15mph. All golfcarts should be resricted to cartpath only except when they need to travel in a diamond lane.
All golfcart drivers should be required to take a driving test and a written test so as to be licensed. They should also be required to have a minumum limit of liability fo $500,000 and must carry an insurance card with them at all times to prove their carts are insured. If a cart driver/owner violates any of these rules then they should be subjected to have their golf cart licenses suspended for a minimum of 6 months (period)
