Payne, a recently retired real estate agent from Irvine, was ejected shortly before the cart hit the road beneath the cliff and died on impact, Kerns said.

He should have been wearing his seat belt.

The golf cart was possessed by the spirit of an SUV.

Sad story, but from the headline and the way it’s written it seems like the golf cart hat a mind of it’s own.

Edwin Payne teed off with three friends on the second hole of the Pala Mesa Resort Golf Course in northern San Diego County at around 10 a.m. and then got into his cart.

His friends were so upset that they decided to only play nine holes.

I’ve heard of playing the ball where it lies, but that’s ridiculous.

The vehicle veered off the concrete pathway, traveled down a 25-foot embankment and went over the edge of the cliff, said California Highway Patrol spokesman Tom Kerns said.

We are in a world of hurt when golf carts start having independent actions like SUVs.

And the round of golf became much slower.

Hit the ball, drag Edwin. Hit the ball, drag Edwin.

As I recall, the professional golfer Payne Stewart died in a tragic airplane accident. Now golfer Edwin Payne dies in a tragic golf cart accident...

If this had been Bill Clinton, he still would have claimed at least par for the hole.

Couldn’t resist that, but, I should add: Prayers for this man’s family...
