It has been six weeks since I could walk. I learned the hard way. If I had seat belts at the time of my accident, I may have been able to avoid being thrown out of my golf cart. Fourteen pins and one plate in my right ankle later, I know now that the the additional $200 would have been a bargain. Nine weeks non-weight bearing is hell, but it could have been much worse. Be careful out there. Golf cart accidents seem to be the norm these days.

Golf cart safety school coming up next week at Colony Cottage rec center. People should attend the very informative clinic and get the TRUTH about cart usage. Lots of WRONG information on this and other sites.

It's not just in the villages and golf carts. It is the same everywhere people act entitled like the rules and laws don't apply to them. If you drove any vehicle with the attitude "Screw them I got the right of way" You would be in a crash at least 5 times a week. Maybe it's their fault but your vehicle is still wrecked and someone maybe injured.

Carts verses cars is a no win situation for carts. Be careful.

Maybe it was a street legal vehicle.

Still can't be on 466-----speed limit is 45, and street legal carts are (supposedly) limited to 25mph on roads posted 35mph or less

I have often thought that there are really very few accidents. Your golf cart being struck by a meteor is an accident. Your golf cart striking another vehicle because you were going over the 20 mile-per-hour speed limit and losing control on a 90° turn is not. Nor is clipping the mirror of an oncoming cart because you turned to say something to your passenger. Nearly all "accidents" can be avoided by the simple expedients of SLOWING DOWN and PAYING ATTENTION. |
