It appears that they are out there with their "right" to use the same lanes you do and shoving it down your throat. It's kind of a passive-aggressive giant middle finger. Can and do some LSVs go over 25 just as regular carts go over 20---I'm sure they do, but I can only assume if they get in an accident the insurer will check to see if over 25 is possible and deny coverage, just as they do with other carts. If you want to go faster, take your car.
Personally I think 35 is fast enough on the major roads, but sometimes it's easy to drift up over 40 if your not watching the speedometer because the conditions are more than favorable. If the speed limit is set for safety issues, fine. But if it is set at 35 to accommodate the handful of LSVs out there, it's a joke.
End of rant.

I absolutely agree. I've never seen the sense in them either, but to each their own.
