OK, I have a GPS on my car that reads to the tenth of a MPH and is in very close agreement with the cars speedometer, and I have been passed (I was going 30.4 mph) by a golf cart. Also from the local news reports, the last sentence does not ring true either. These things can be dangerous if not driven and handled correctly.

Our cart does 20. We've been passed often by carts traveling much faster. While we can't quantify speeds, many of these carts, who then simply pulled away from us, were going much faster than the limit.
