Golf Cart Accident
 
There appeared to be a serious golf cart accident on the multi model path running alongside of the Turtle Mound Golf Course today. There was considerable palm tree debris on the path from the wind today when I initially drove it. On my way back there was a haphazard detour through the golf course, and two ambulances at the accident. Hope all involved are ok.

That area near the water tower on Turtle Mound is where Med Flights land. Medics transport patients there from any number of accident scenes and types of accidents to be flown to hospitals for care.

It's on NextDoor. One golf car accident. Flipped it. The MMP is tricky there.

Going too fast, drunk, or both. Most likely, but also could have been medical.

Or swerved around some debris in the path or swerved to avoid some flying debris or caught a wind gust while in a corner or ....

[SARCASM] But I'm sure you're right, just drunk, like all the Villagers [/SARCASM]

On next door they are saying a gust of wind took her hat off and she lost control trying to grab the hat. Says they flew her out by the water tower.

Sorry, poor attempt at sarcasm. With absolutely no information at all the poster I was replying to determined the driver was drunk (or speeding or both). Seems to be a common accusation that if any accident happens it was because a Villager was drunk.

OR COULD HAVE BEEN:
sun was in my eyes
alligator dashed onto MMP
golf cart mechanical failure
passenger grabbed the steering wheel
driver was watching a space launch
driver was on cell phone
a golf ball hit the cart from turtle mound course

There are 3 eyewitness accounts on the other site, and the driver was neither drunk nor speeding, he lost control of his vehicle either trying to grab his hat that flew off or trying to make a U-turn to retrieve it. Some people assume too much.

Perhaps too elderly to drive. Probably no wearing seatbelt.
