By the plate.... they are from Brooklyn NY

Grab several people to watch. Witness. they say no, I saw nothing.
Lift the seat. flip the run switch to off. You can now roll the cart freely.

Entitled idiots think they can get away with BS.

Better yet ..... roll the golf cart into the middle of the nearest intersection.

Now they have a Police issue and and will most likely get a service call for $125 to flip the switch.

Or simply call 911. The police can run the Carts Vehicle ID number. Typically under the Dash on the passenger side. Get their address.

Po Po will send them a ticket for illegal parking.

Tow it and you can laugh.

Get back on your horse and start fighting back.

As soon as you start moving the offending golf cart, you legally are in possession of it and can be prosecuted for vehicular theft. Never move another person's cart. A better idea, even though still illegal, is taking out your trusty pocketknife and poking their sidewall.

Very easy to put a cart in neutral and push it out of the way, if you have been blocked in.

Vandalism is a better idea than the technical theft of moving a golf cart???? Hmmmm.......

Yep. Turn the cart sideways in the parking space.

So many have suggested I push the cart out into the aisle …back out & go on my merry way. I would never done that as I would have been putting others in harms way.

Exactly what I did at Colony Publix one day. Hope "Sam's" cart was till in the aisle when he came out.

Oh yes, it's much much better to cause damage to someone else's property, when that property is in your way and blocking you from being able to leave the scene. That way, when the shopper finally comes out of the store and sees that he has a flat tire and you're sitting there smugly and fully immersed in your righteous indignation, he'll know you were the one who punctured his tire.

Where, if you had simply leaned down to press the gas pedal and release the brake, and stood to the side of the cart, reached behind the seat and at the windshield, and rolled it out of the way, you would've been gone within seconds, with no one and nothing harmed, and the insensitive shopper knowing that whoever he blocked in, moved his vehicle and maybe he shouldn't do that again.

I think that's what I would have done; take the brake off and push the FUHGETABOUTIT cart out of the way. It's just so disrespectful. After I posted a few days ago, I was second guessing myself . . . feeling like I didn't know the full story. Maybe the three cart owners were all friends and would leave at the same time, for example.
