The 1st time we rented a cart at TV I was suprised, after taking a sharp turn, that the side bar didn't afford much protection from sliding across the bench seat. At least the driver has the steering wheel to hold onto... pity the poor passenger!
I take my turns slower now...but...restraints might be in our future...if there is such a thing.

The side bar is pretty much useless. The handle in the roof does a better job of keeping the passenger in the cart. However, if you are transporting a young child, he/she may not be able to reach the handle. There is an after market that sells seat belts for regular golf carts. I've seen them on the web. If we ever have grandkids and they come to visit, we will be investing in seat belts for them.

I personally think any golf cart driving on the roads in the Villages should have to ware seat belts, if for nothing else its to protect the passenger.

Although I think it should be an option, I don't think we need another cradle to grave law.
