I think everyone would like to see safety improved, except maybe the offenders. But I would like to see, if possible, an effective, acceptable cost solution, not some Draconian big government regulatory agency.

This thread reminds me of my 4 year old grandson stomping off to his room because he didn't get his way. And being a child, he too could come up with several reasons and analogies to justify his position.

We've all seen this happen-a souped up golf cart,pulling out from behind 3 golf carts & passing all 3 of them at once-there are a few guys on Bailey Trail, that do this on a regular basis-must be rushing to the Cane Garden for their happy hour seat @ the bar.

I see your point.
"I think it would be advantages and helpful if The Village's established an ID Tag for golf carts." was the OP's suggestion. It was never about safety.

Exclamation To Clarify

It was never meant to be for safety. It was more for "accountability". As you can see from some of the feed backs there are significant objections with being identified or held accountable and this further supports the advantage of having an ID. The same argument being made for not having an ID is the strong support as to why one is needed.

Apparently you don't get that a small ID number would not do any good in just about all of the cases, and you apparently don't see how it would lead to another layer of bureaucracy for many, because of a few irresponsible individuals.

"stupid" may possibly be too strong for the condition. Perhaps "bored" and not choosing to do anything worthwhile would work. This just fits in with other ridiculous common complaints about life here in "paradise". If the LEO's don't control violations now, why turn it over to a bunch of busybodies to report and whine about?

PennBF has not addressed the fact that accountability would be minimal if drivers were required to place a small number on a golf cart window.
