I also read the article that mentioned looking into a change to Fl statutes to enforce speed limits on MMPs. What a great idea! With that change we can divert law enforcement from the streets where cars routinely travel 20-30 mph over the speed limit to the MMPs where we can snag grandpa racing along at 2-3 miles an hour over the limit in his golf cart. By god, I know I'll sleep better at night knowing no one is going to pass me on that path as I head to my golf game.

I also read that driving a golf cart capable of exceeding 20 mph is a "criminal" offense requiring a court appearance yet, after checking the FL motor vehicle statues, I found that automobile speeding up to 29 mph is a "civil" offense not requiring a court appearance. Have we lost our minds?
Don't think so....
