Golf carts on the roads are irritating! Up at Walden in Conroe people or their kids drive down the 2 lane main road in & out of the subdivision. Even though the speed limit is only 35, these idiots drive their carts exactly at or less than the speed limit. Some of the carts are not legal because they are small and they do not have lights on the front & back. Some have the slow vehicle red triangle on the back.
As a driver of a vehicle much larger than these carts, I must be extra alert because they can tip over. No one ever is wearing a helmet, nor do they pay attention to the traffic! Their slowness causes traffic to build up behind them for sometimes up to a mile. When kids are driving them, they pile other kids on, sometimes over the seat limit. These are kids 10, 11, 12,...they are not adults or even responsible teens, they are kids out having fun without parent supervision with a vehicle that requires adult decision making if it's on the public street! Golf carts on public streets are irritating!
I'm sure you and you kids enjoy you golf cart and you said above that you don't care what others think, so my rant means nothing. I wish the legislature had never passed the law making them street legal. I'm sure the intent was not for city driving, but for small subdivision and backroad country driving. 4951
