My wife and I also did the same (rental golf cart thru a round-a-bout) but a guy quickly showed me where to get back on the golf cart path. I have been driving in the Atlanta area for over 25 years and if I had been here they would have been giving me the hand signs using one finger.

my guess is almost all of us here have had someone tell you that you were doing it wrong at least once

telling people that their opinion is wrong or can't be true is equally as irritating - but try not to let it get to ya.

A memory from long ago. We lived in southern NY state near the Jersey border. I'd be riding with my grandfather, who was from Hackettstown, NJ and he'd be complaining about the blankety-blankety Jersey drivers. Funny stuff. :)

Oops when carting to Sumter
 
We have lived in Sanibel for 2 1/2 months. The other night we decided to take our cart to Sumter. It was only our second time going there via golf cart. I must admit, I think they should label the cart paths and tunnels with signs that say "this way to Sumpter Landing" or " this way to Spanish Springs". There are some signs but not many directing a person to the squares. Anyway, we neglected to take the proper tunnel and ended up going on a golf course. We quickly realized we'd made a mistake as well as a golfer telling us this wasn't a cart path. The attendant from the starter booth also came out and directed us properly. We were pretty embarrassed. It does take some getting use to when carting around TV. It would sure be nice if the paths were marked more clearly.
