You could drive in the golf cart lane, I think, but if you were out on a busy day you would have to drive slower unless you were behind someone in a gas cart who illegally had their governor changed to allow higher speeds. I think I've seen an Atomic golf car on the MMP but I'm not sure if that's allowed. I wonder how it rides; those seats and tires didn't look too comfortable. Have you called them already? Couldn't find an address although the ad said that they were CST. I wonder how long the battery(ies) last & how much they are to replace. I don't think I could buy something like that over the phone.
That's a great answer and to add one more objection: the website is scary old. Says safer warehouse is a 10 yo company but the website is 25 and pages fail to load half the time. It shows the list price of 20k and if you buy today they sell it for 10k. Today is the last day etc....
