Be careful of what some are quoting for low, low prices here. I've been told by agents that some customers simply add the cart to their homeowner policy, when actually, they need vehicle-motorist coverages.
It should be a separate golf cart policy (classified as Off-Road Vehicle unless it is Street Legal), with Vehicle Insurance Coverages for:
Part A: LIABILITY
Bodily Injury -- $250,000 ea person/ $500,000 each accident $15.00
PASSENGER LIABILITY - Included
PROPERTY DAMAGE -- $100,000 each accident $5.00
Part B: MEDICAL PAYMENTS -- $5,000 each person $24.00
Part C: Uninsured Motorist -- $250,000 ea person / $500,000 ea accident $59.00
Part D: Damage to your vehicle
COLLISION -- ACV not to exceed $7,295 -- $31.00
Less $250 deductible
Other Than Collision: ACV not to exceed $7,295 -- $26.00
Less $250 deductible
Annual Premium by Vehicle -- $160.00
(This was 2013 Foremost insurance on remanufactured Yamaha gas cart)
P.S. Get quotes from other agencies!

This is the only valid post on this thread so far and it hits the nail on the head. You can't just throw numbers out as to what you pay for golf cart insurance. You need to know what coverages you are buying. The list of coverages provided by this poster are the coverages every Villager should request and as stated, with most companies it will be a separate policy. Street legal carts will cost more.
If you are paying $100 a year or less you are most likely underinsured for all the risks you are exposed to in The Villages.
