Sorry to hear of the mishap but not surprised. More and more golf cart drivers are seen to be out of control. The biggest infraction is running I mean RUNNING stop signs and assuming others will stop. An example........Stopped at intersection (2 lane street- no turn lane) in my auto intending and signalling to turn right and what zooms by me on the left never stopping (crossing center of street by stop line). You guessed it a golf cart with clubs late for a t-time with a death wish I presume. As I said, signs and lights are meaningless and this can't be blamed on "snow birds"....What in the heck is the hurry and why the lack of common sense and courtesy becoming more prevalent here in "Florida's Friendliest Home town".

There I feel much better now........
