Did your neighbor leave the keys in the cart?

I saw in The Daily Sun that a 19 year old had been picked up for stealing out of golf carts. He had taken a wallet plus a couple other things. Isn't leaving a wallet in your cart just plain foolish? Ditto for leaving keys in your cart - and leaving your garage door open.
Take normal precautions anywhere. |

Hopefully, someone is playing a prank---if not---there is trouble in paradise!

Golf cart keys are all the same under each manufacturer. Leaving your keys in the ignition makes it much easier, but anyone can easily purchase a key for each manufacturer and take your cart.

Special key
Betty, what you say was true but now most golf carts are single keyed.

Ok so the story is that the cart is a rental and the keys were left in the box because the owners were coming to pick the cart up this AM. They were literally gone for an hour. Police were here to take the report.

Is it possible that the owners came and took the cart? By "in the box", I assume you mean the beverage cooler. A cart thief probably is not going to see a cart in a driveway and check in the cooler for a key. The thief is most likely going to see if the key is in the ignition and, if not, move on. Ask your neighbor if they checked with the owner. Please post what you find happened. |

I remember having a problem with my relatively new golf cart. I called The Villages Golf Cart store and they told me they would be coming to pick up my golf cart very early the next morning. They advised me to leave my keys in my golf cart. Yikes! No longer would I ever do that!

No because the owners came to look for the cart.

my golf car key is worth 5 cents and is not individually keyed, and I find all this theft stuff in Fernandina/Sanibel (4-5 incidents?) is likely the work of one group and bound to end with thugs in prison.
