They who "assume" things are usually wrong.

The gates may be for traffic control but the guards don't look at the golf carts;
they are concerned with the cars in the resident lane vs. the visitor lane so they both don't enter a Village simultaneously.

Don't lose sight of the fact that cars have priority on the streets.
Think of it as the golf carts being guests.
The way many drive the golf carts, it is them who are playing dodgem with the autos.
