    The driver claims his steering just didnt work, and drove his golf cart:biggrin_25524: head on into one of our trucks...

    i didint get a picture of the golf cart stuck to the front of our truck, he actualy hurt himself pretty good, the steering wheel got him really good, and he hit the windshield with his head as well.
    pilot made him go have x-rays taken just to make sure....

    Was this at the one in Dallas that would be hilarious. I saw the Security guy there get out of his golf cart while it was still moving and it went off by itself over a curb and hit a pole.

    I have heard it's a bear............to get a bear out there to a truck stop in GA, they use the old "Thats private property" excuse.

    i have heard that before, but in texas. if its private property and under 1000 bucks damage they basically just stand there in the breeze.

    Many states will not send the police for a minor accident on private property.

    I had a pickup back into my car and crush the fender, and no cops came. They said it was up to the insurance to deal with it. The parking lot where I work is extremely busy and we've gotten to see quite a few wrecks there and the only time cops came was on a hit and run. This is in CA by the way.
