The following is a first-hand account of a golf cart accident that occurred in Cape Charles back in 2017. There have many, many other incidents like this, but they never seem to get reported. The issue with carts: they are like deer. It’s not if one will lurch out in front of you, but when:
In 2017 I witnessed a bad golf cart accident involving teenagers with too many passengers on the golf cart. The cart tipped over and landed on one of the teen’s feet resulting in a very serious and deep cut to her ankle. There was blood everywhere on the concrete. The other teen suffered an injury to her arm but she played it off, although I could see the obvious swelling. The kids were unsure whether to call an ambulance because they were afraid of getting into trouble with the police for not having a driver’s license. I told them if they did not call then I would. Paramedics came and took the girl with the badly cut foot to the hospital. So yes, there has been at least one serious golf cart accident that I witnessed first hand in the Cape Charles area, but I never saw it reported or mentioned in the local news. That girl was very lucky she did not have her foot cut off that day.

Don’t know if you will get the pic. But remember this jerk?
It was report that he was injured after his joy ride on the beach. He overturned rented golf cart and scraped his whole left side. And yes there was a lot of blood. Had to get the sheriff’s department to respond. It happened around 7am.
