Also, golf car drivers tend to feel more confident about driving drunk than automobile drivers. Those factors become a DEADLY combination. Often people need to be PROTECTED from THEMSELVES.

People that care about people would WANT the speed of golf carts checked for humanitarian purposes. With A.I. and robotics development it would seem easy enough to have ground-mounted cameras or a drone that would identify a chip in a golf cart and issue a ticket by mail for speeding and also to check for improper speed adjustments to the engine.
