Just after we arrived we saw a lady ALMOST fall out of a cart when she was looking right and her male partner decided to take a hard left. He grabbed her some how and drug her back into the cart. I took our cart in the next week and had 4 seatbelts added (2 on the rear facing back seat) and we buckle up before moving. About every other day in the paper you read about someone getting "EJECTED" from a cart during an accident. I'll take my chances strapped in the cart. I don't use the belt on the golf course.
