Default Re: Golf Cart & Gates

This is a problem gate. At one time, they put a concrete curb in the cart lane to force the carts into the automobile lane. Very few people in carts carry a gate card so the traffic backed up while they buzzed to get the gate opened. They eventually got rid of the concrete barriers and they are back to square one.

No one should be turning in front of carts. They are probably new or not paying attention. But this is true on any street where you are in the cart lane and the car is next to you or very close in front of you and wants to turn. Keep your eye on the car and your foot close to the brake.

These drivers that cut you off and probably the same ones that get po'ed when someone does it to them.

Use common sense AND be alert at all times.
