Selective enforcement, giving or taking the right away only confuses the majority who follow the rules.
Well stated! Everyone needs to just follow the same rules. Obviously that does not happen, as evidenced by the number of gate repairs we see.

I was always under the impression that CARS have the right away over Golf Carts. It amazes me that golf carts just pull out when they merge with the roadway. If you were entering I-75 would you just pull out in front of traffic ? Maybe one time, but that would be all. Some think it is courteous to let golf carts cross. What about the line of cars behind you waiting to go through the gate. Just saying......

This thread is 11 pages long at this point so I'm not sure you are replying to the OP (me). I assume you are saying I did nothing wrong when I waved on a guy in a golf cart waiting to cross at the gate exit. After 11 pages of responses in this thread, I realize waving a cart driver or a driver in any vehicle, is the absolute wrong thing to do. It may be a nice gesture but it is still very wrong. The cart guy's reaction by being nasty to me was criticized by folks on this thread. However, everyone said they would have done the same thing Mr. Cart guy did.......stay put until I went through the gate.
