It beats me why the 19.9 keeps coming up. The max speed limit for carts is 20 mph. I think the confusion lies with the fact on carts, gas or electric at 19.6 mph the cart is set to throttle down. In an earlier post someone mentioned do gooders celebrating someone getting a speeding ticket for doing 21 mph. I celebrate when someone in a golf cart on a rare occasion gets a speeding ticket for doing 26 mph passing another cart doing 20 on morse blvd. Chances are they are the same ones passing on blind curves of the cart paths.
