Golf Carts Don't Make Good Getaway Cars

This seems like something you'd see at a celebrity tournament featuring John Daly, except Daly would never run, and the chase would inevitably end up at Hooters.

No such luck; this is just some random, not-very-smart dude who stole a car, and then tried to avoid police by running across a golf course before commandeering a golf cart on his way to freedom. Yeah, a funny thing happened in pursuit of liberty: this wasn't a high-performance golf cart, but just your run-of-the-mill golf cart designed for, well, leisurely ferrying golfers from one hole to the next.



Let's see, theoretically, humans top out at 30 m.p.h., and a golf cart averages 4 m.p.h. And even if McGruber above only averages, say, 10 m.p.h., he still would've been 2.5 times better off running like, um, the cops were chasing him, instead of rollin' in the beer cart.
