Electric carts are great.
Just make it a rule to turn off the key when drivers get out of the
electric golf cart.

Why? Get this.
Key switch left "on" so all you need to do is get in and step on the
"go" pedal.
This is a normal procedure.
Next, a small soft-sided cooler on the seat has some ice melt,
altering its Center Of Gravity.
Cooler shifts forward off the seat, falls onto the "go" pedal.
Driverless golf cart now speeds down the flight line . . .

I've also seen a car on a gliderport left at idle, shift into gear,
with no driver aboard.
Twice.

After 50 years in soaring, I've darn near seen it all.
The good, the bad and the ugly.
Guess that's why I get to conduct many of the SSF Site Surveys.
