Speed issues. Most golf carts start out set for 15 mph. By adjusting the govenor, the golf carts in the villages are upgraded to 20 mph, the legal speed to drive a Low Speed Vehicle on the streets according to Florida law. High speed gears usually mean an illegal upgrade that allows a cart to go above the 20 mph speed limit. Be sure you understand the ramifications of going over 20mph. There are a lot of carts in the villages that go over 20mph. The Villages is so spread out, some feel the higher speed is worth it. If you opt for a high speed vehicle, be sure to get a speedometer. Carts usually have tires that are used on both the street and golf courses. Knobby tires are not allowed on the golf courses.
