Default Don Not Totally Understand

I guess my problem with this story is the lack of complete details or maybe they were there and I just didn't see them.

Was this a 4-seater cart? Was speed a factor or just assumed? If not, then why is all the blame being placed on the 14-year old driver. According to the story, the child who fell off was riding on the back of the golf cart when the cart hit a bump. This could very well have happened if an adult (licensed at that) had been driving and/or speeding (if it was a factor). Speeding or unwise decisions is not limited to just kids.

Maybe I can go back and re-read the article to see if I can answer some of my own questions.
