It seems silly to think that 2-3 mph over the limit wouldn't get you into trouble and in most cases it won't. But if you get into an accident and it's found that your cart is capable of going over 20 mph you'd get cited for driving an unregistered and uninsured vehicle. There might be additional citations for not having the proper safety equipment that is required on an LSV.

The question I have is why are those carts set to go only up to 19mph when the legal limit is 20mph?

One thing that I think of is how accurate are these speedometers. I have an eight month old EZGO with the digital speedometer/computer. It usually registers 21mph and occasionally jumps up to 22mph. Is that speedometer accurate to 1-2mph? Does the dealer that I bought it from have some liability if there is a problem?

Just put an app on your phone to verify speed. See how the app compares to the speedometer in your car. Ulysee has a good one.
