As the OP certainly can testify there are thousands of law breakers here in Florida's friendliest home town.
Interesting. I could not find anything in federal statutes or the Federal Register that reference golf carts. There are some safety regulations regarding LSVs, but nothing about speed other than the definition that they go 20+ mph. All golf cart regulations appear to be state and local. IF there is any federal regulation of golf carts, it would only go to prove we have way, way too much government.
