Golf Course Cart Agreement
business name releases cart cart number to guest name on date for the round starting tee time.
- Who may drive. Only the people named here, each of whom holds a driving licence and is at least minimum age: drivers. No more people ride than there are seats, nobody rides on the back or stands, and arms and legs stay inside while the cart is moving.
- Where the cart goes. Cart paths and the areas the course allows on the day. Off the path only where signs permit and never on tees, greens, aprons, bunkers or within green distance of a green. The ninety-degree rule and cart-path-only days are followed as posted or as the starter directs.
- Wet ground and slopes. I will keep off ground that is wet or soft, approach slopes straight rather than across them, and slow before turning. A cart will tip on a side slope with very little warning.
- Alcohol. The driver does not drive after drinking. I understand that the club may take the cart back at any time for unsafe driving and that no refund is owed.
- Weather. If play is suspended for lightning I will return to the clubhouse at once by the shortest safe route and leave the cart where staff direct.
- Condition and damage. I have the cart in the condition recorded here: condition notes. I return it to return location by return time, and I am responsible for damage to the cart, to the course or to anybody else caused by how I use it.
- The risks. A golf cart tips on slopes and turns, offers no protection in a collision, and injures people who fall from it. I accept those risks for myself and the people I carry, and to the extent the law where business name operates allows, I release business name from claims arising from my ordinary use of the cart, other than claims arising from a defect it knew of or its own negligence that the law does not let a release cover.
By signing I confirm that I have read this, understood it, and meant to sign it.
