Could a $2 ratchet strap or bungee cord have prevented this?

Ouch, one of those type of carts just came through my theatre, I'll need to check if it had a strap next time I see it...
The fact that these carts were stored openly in the gym is part of the problem. Simple and classic negligence.

Exactly. They never should have been left out in the open. Even if they were secured properly within the cart, the cart shouldn't have been exposed to the public. Ever.
But, as MNicolai noted, such a practice is quite likely to be impractical in some situations.
Even still, I can think back to my grade school days of having teachers/ lunch mom chaperons yelling at me "not to go near that".
It's not any one persons fault. A series of bad judgments cause a horrible accident.
