soxfaninbeverly Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 Blind man arrested after driving golf cart advertisement Associated Press Jun. 16, 2004 08:13 AM PEACHTREE CITY, Ga. - A blind man was charged with reckless conduct after he drove a golf cart through the city with help from an inebriated friend. Samuel McClain, 35, drove two miles through winding streets - also accompanied by his guide dog - before running into a parked car, police said. No one was hurt, but McClain and Michael Johnston, 47, were charged with reckless conduct "due to the blatant disregard for public safety," according to police reports. The report said McClain drove the cart Saturday while Johnston gave directions after having six or seven beers. Peachtree City, about 25 miles south of Atlanta, has about 80 miles of paved cart paths and 9,000 registered carts that residents use for daily errands.

Texsox Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 LMAO. If blind people can hunt deer in Wisconsin (true as of a couple seasons ago) why not drive a golf cart? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
