A Florida man is in custody and accused of DUI after a golf cart crash killed his wife in a community where carts are as common as cars.
The crash happened on Sunday in a neighborhood where WJAX says golf carts nearly outnumber its residents.
The St. Johns County Sheriff’s Office (SJCSO) reported that the suspect, Angelo Theodosiou, was driving the golf cart with bloodshot eyes and a strong odor of alcohol. His wife, Christina, died after falling from the cart and hitting her head on the ground.
Barnes said there had been close calls in the past and that he expected an incident like this to happen eventually.
Pajcic offered safety tips for golf cart enthusiasts, including: “Don’t drink and drive, always wear a seatbelt, keep your headlights on, use your blinkers, and stay in your lane.”
