Default A felony?

I was chatting with my neighbor today who informed me that if I get stopped for speeding in my golf cart on the road (not on the cart path) that I could be charged with a felony if my cart speed is set to go over 20 miles per hour. Can anyone shed some light on this? I mean I find it hard to believe that it could be a felony that my golf cart is set at 25 miles per hour. I do realize the speed limit is 20 mph and I rarely go over that, but my cart is set to a higher speed just because I bought the cart used and never changed the speed on the engine. I want to know if it anyone can share FACTS in relation to speed violations and a felony charge in the State of Florida. Thanks for the insight. Rae
