GOLF COURSE SAFETY PROGRAM
!
Like all machines, golf cars can
cause injury if improperly used or
maintained. This section contains
broad safety practices required for
safe golf car operation. Before golf
cars are operated, golf course per-
sonnel should establish any addition-
al safety practices that may be
required for safe operation.
Experience has shown that golf cars
are safe when operated in accor-
dance with the safety warnings
affixed to every golf car. This safe
operation is enhanced when golf cars
are used according to the safety rules
and practices established to meet the
terrain and conditions of the course
they are used on.
The information contained here is
intended for golf course personnel
responsible for golf car safety. If you
are responsible for the operation and
maintenance of this golf car, we
encourage you to implement this golf
car safety program.
