Golf cart and UTV safety training is for employees who drive small vehicles at work. That includes golf course staff, campus security, facility and grounds crews, and workers at resorts and industrial sites. Supervisors who oversee cart fleets also benefit. The 9-minute video is in English with Spanish and French closed captions.
The main hazards of golf carts and UTVs are collisions, rollovers and riders being thrown from the vehicle. Risk rises on slopes, rough or wet ground, and sharp turns taken too fast. Overloading, carrying extra riders and distracted driving also cause many injuries.
A golf cart pre-operation inspection should check tires, brakes, steering, lights, horn and mirrors. Look for fluid leaks, loose parts and damaged seats or rails. On electric carts, check battery charge and cables. Report any defect and keep the cart out of service until it is repaired.
Drive a UTV straight up or down a slope rather than across it, since crossing a hill raises rollover risk. Slow down, avoid sudden turns, and keep loads low and secured. Everyone should stay seated with seat belts fastened and hands and feet inside the vehicle.
Licensing rules for golf cart and UTV drivers vary by state and local jurisdiction, especially on public roads. On private work sites, the employer typically sets driver requirements, such as minimum age, training and authorization. Check local regulations and company policy before employees operate carts.
