There is the law. I suggest all check. Top LEGAL speed is 20 miles per hour. More than that and you need to have a license, insurance and PLATES. Far as smells a golf cart that smells more than usual is probably not properly tuned. Most golf carts are actually designed to do 12 miles per hour. They are top heavy, narrow wheel spacing so easy to roll. They have brakes on only the rear wheels so like your old bicycle, when you apply the brakes the weight shifts forward and it easily skids reducing the effectiveness of the brakes. Handling, closer to a brick than a sportscar.
