Watch out for drunken golf-cart drivers if you visit Peachtree, Ga.
Peachtree City, Ga., is the "Golf Cart Capital of the World," where
10,000 registered golf carts (one for every three of its 34,000 citizens) gently
zoom about on 100 miles of dedicated golf cart paths. But the town is also beset
by drunken golf-cart drivers: More than 15 percent of drunken driving charges in
2012 involved golf carts, and the police are making a serious effort to crack
down. "Unfortunately, it's public perception to some that it's not a big deal to
drive intoxicated in a golf cart," said Lt. Mark Brown. Peachtree City
residents: Stop spiking your Arnold Palmers.
