Tip: At an unmanned pair of gates, after swiping your card and the resident gate goes up, do not pull forward 3 feet, STOP, and wave a waiting golf cart on your left (in the space between the vehicle lanes) to cross in front of you! The car using the visitor gate will not expect this. If the golf cart driver is foolish enough to follow your waving, the car in the visitor lane will probably hit the cart!

Today I was driving the car using the visitor gate. Fortunately the golf cart driver knew better and waited.
