Woman Seriously Injured After Being Ejected From Golf Cart 

On July 16th, it was reported that a woman had been “ejected” from a golf cart in North Dakota. This injured individual was apparently the passenger of a golf cart driver who made a reckless left-hand turn. The turn was seemingly so sudden that it caused the passenger to fall out of the vehicle, causing serious injuries that required hospitalization. The driver was arrested on charges of criminal vehicular injury, although the single-vehicle crash is still under investigation.

Police Car Crashes into Golf Cart 

On July 14th, it was reported that a police vehicle had crashed into a golf cart in Arizona. The circumstances of the crash are unclear, and the authorities remain tight-lipped about the entire incident. Video surveillance from the incident seems to depict some kind of altercation near a strip club that drew in numerous police vehicles. It remains to be seen whether the golf cart arrived on the scene after the arrival of these vehicles, or whether the police arrived because of the golf cart crash.

Teens Suffer Serious Injuries in Golf Cart Crash

 On July 11th, it was reported that teens had suffered serious injuries after a golf cart crash in Texas. The three 18-year-olds were traveling along a road in Eastland County when a Ford Fiesta suddenly appeared and crashed into them. The Fiesta – which police say was traveling at an “unsafe speed” – proceeded to crash into a third vehicle. Virtually everyone involved in this crash was hospitalized, and it seems clear that the teens driving the golf cart were not to blame for the collision.
