A Utah sheriff's office has found that it shouldn't underestimate the golf cart as a getaway car.
A suspect in a souped-up cart managed to elude officers who pursued him last month through an alfalfa field _ but only for a while. He was arrested the next day at his grandmother's house.
Officers started pursuing the driver after he was spotted spinning out in a city park in Morgan. He took off into an alfalfa field and jumped irrigation ditches that the sheriff's cruisers couldn't cross.
Morgan County Sheriff's Sgt. Scott Peay suspects the cart was fitted with a car engine instead of the original electric motor.

That's really really funny. It's amazing what some people will do to get away from the cops. I wonder exactly how fast the dang golf cart went anyway. It would have been fun to be a fly on the windsheild that day with a teeny tiny camera, in order to record the action as it happened. LOL LOL LOL thanks for posting this.

Well, I guess if you are going to run from the police, a golf cart is better than a bicycle, or skate board, huh?
