They also gave him 48 hours to have the cart adjusted. It is a small risk, but it's out there.
True. You can get a healthy fine just by owning a golf cart that can exceed the limit. Doesn't matter if you were driving 10mph at the time when someone runs into you. The police will check your cart, and if it was set to go above the limit, you're screwed. Prepare to go to court and pay a hefty fine.
