Chain or  rope off these potentially  hazardous areas or identify them  with a suitable warning 
describing the nature of the hazard and the proper precautions to be taken to avoid the hazard. 

Wet Areas:

 Wet grass may cause a golf car to lose traction and may affect stability. Reduce speed in 

wet areas or during periods of inclement weather. 

Loose Terrain: 

Loose terrain may cause a golf car to lose traction and may affect stability. Repair 

loose terrain, chain or rope off these areas, or identify loose terrain with a suitable warning. 

Golf Car and Pedestrian Interference:

 Reroute golf car traffic or pedestrian traffic in congested areas 

wherever possible to prevent accidents. If it is impractical to reroute traffic, erect warning signs to 
warn pedestrians of golf car traffic, and to warn golf car operators to drive slowly, use caution, and 
watch for pedestrians. 

Ventilation:

 Properly ventilate all maintenance and storage areas in accordance with applicable fire 

codes and ordinances to avoid fire hazards.Ventilation is required to remove hydrogen gas from the 
car storage areas during the battery charging process. 

For electric powered golf cars, the amount of hydrogen gas emitted during charging depends on a 
number of factors, such as the condition of the batteries, the output rate of the battery charger, and 
the amount of time the batteries are on charge. Because of the highly volatile nature of hydrogen 
gas and  its propensity  to rise and accumulate  at the ceiling in pockets, a minimum  of  five  air 
changes per hour is  recommended. Consult applicable  fire and safety codes for the specific 
ventilation levels requirement, as  well as requirements for the use of  explosion proof electrical 
apparatus.
