Okay...a synopsis of what happened visa vis the golf cart accident.
Eight of us were playing in two groups of four.
We were all drinking heavily.
On the 18th hole the front group (mine) got held up by a group in front and so our second group were all standing on the tee waiting to hit.
I hit a good long straight one. After everyone had hit we decided to have an impromptu cart race. My girlfriend made some nifty moves and managed to get our cart in the lead. She was speeding down the middle of the fairway when she noticed that the other carts were turning left heading for the cart path. I told her "No...we will slow down..my ball is in the middle of the fairway...keep going straight."
I should have known better. About halfway down the fairway a road crossed the 18th fairway. The road was on a steep downhill and therefore there was quite a drop from the fairway down to the road. There were no fenses, no signs that there was a road there and you could not see it as the fairway actually was uphill at that point, perpendicular to the road. We crested the hill and lo and behold there was a cliff (maybe 15 feet high).
My girlfriend paniced and her foot never left the gas pedal, which was depressed all the way at full speed.
We careened down the smal slope leading to the edge of the cliff and then off we went. I was trying to reach over with my left leg to hit the brake and as a result my backside was not on the seat. When we hit the road I was forced down onto the seat. I was wearing shorts and the backside of my leg was pinched as the PVC seat caused a roll of skin to bunch up on the back of my legs.
The cart bounced once..broke the axil and then flipped on its left side. My girlfriend was forced down under the steering wheel and I kind of fell on top of her.
She was ok...bashed her knees on the front of the cart.
The back of my right leg was bleeding as the skin had broken when it was pinched...the left leg just hurt alot.
Two days later the back of my legs looked much like the pic above from the bottom of my butt all the way past my knees.
