No, but if you are street legal once they finish construction there you will be able to cross at the Pinellas light.

Yes, you can cross any road in a street legal golf cart even if the speed limit is 45mph as long as there is a traffic control device. I have crossed 44 & 441 many times once with a cop sitting in his car on the corner. Also 466A past Powell, Powell and 301 south is all 35mph and street legal accessible.

I'd bet there are more people killed crossing 441 walking or driving cars or on bicycles or riding horses then there are killed crossing in a golf cart. Accidents happen everywhere and all the time.
