I just dont understand why people cannot adjust their speed either in their cars or carts and be just a little more aware of their surroundings. If travelling in your car and a right turn is coming up with a golf cart in the golf cart lane, you cannot figure out if you have enough space to make the turn without taking out the cart?? I will slow down if there is not enough space and fall behind the golf cart and let it go thru the intersection first bafore I make the turn. Realistically, how much extra time did it take?? If I can pass the golf cart safely and leave enough room, I signal my intentions and pull into the golf cart lane to make the turn.

My pet pieve is when the golf carts traveling in the golf cart lanes make left turns abruptly from the golf cart lanes across the car traffic lanes. Why is it so hard for them to merge into the car lanes when it is safe to do so and mage the turns. Today I was travelling in my golf cart on St. Charles and the golf cart in front of me slowed down and shot across the street to get to the ST James pool. I slowed down and the car travelling along side of me had to hit the brakes. That could have turned very ugly
