The point is - the posted speed limit there is 15mph

someone passing two golf carts by the fire department by crossing into the opposite lane, in a golf cart, going well over 25mph, is not safe. Or smart. Or reasonable. Or polite.

None of us should've been going more than 15mph. We were all going over 15mph, it was not reasonable for anyone to try to pass any of us, at all. The fact that he was going over 25mph means he was violating a number of laws, because his golf cart didn't have a plate on the back which means - he was operating an unregistered, uninsured, improperly equipped LSV, driving it on the wrong side of the road, and speeding. That all adds up to reckless endangerment too. All at the same time.
Sorry, didn’t realize it was POSTED at 15. Of course, that’s another issue in and of itself
