I find it’s a much more enjoyable ride if I slow down when they pull out so they can pass faster or pull off to the side and let them pass. Just because I’m in no hurry doesn’t mean others aren’t late for appointments.

Not sure which is more dangerous, people driving well above 20 mph, or those that crawl along very slowly causing people to get frustrated and pass in sometimes unsafe situations. Why can’t everyone just set their carts to max out at 20 mph and drive at that speed?

Whatever a cart has under the right foot, it will be used.
Whatever you can get out of your cart, someone will always get 1 mph. more.
Never worry about being overtaken, just avoid the undertaker!:icon_wink:

Power to the senior speeders.

If you had prostate issues you’d understand the urgency. Which explains all the broken gate arms.

There will always be the rule breakers that aggravate and agitate. They have the same disregard for you on the road as they do in the stores and as they do in the neighborhoods.

We like to enjoy ourselves and do go 20-21but I don’t understand the rush. The one that had to pass me tonight proceeded to then turn 20 feet down the road.

I may have witnessed this incident. Another car was coming his way at the time and he had to get in front of you quickly only to slow down and make a left turn into Walgreens. Very dangerous. This could have ended badly.

I personally have no idea how fast my cart goes. I didn't even know some carts came with speedometers! I'll try to get a buddy in a car to drive beside me one day to figure it out.

Try not to take it personal and get frustrated. Let them pass and enjoy the day. Don’t allow them to ruin your time here. Namaste grasshopper

Move over. You’re blocking the lane.

Another great post that will only fall on deaf ears

Get the app on your phone that tells you how fast you are going. Mine is called digiHUD. Very accurate. It’s free

New carts sold in TV are set at 22, they use to set them at 16 golf course speed.
