Wait a minute. It did not say that you will require a driver license to operate a golf cart. The article stated that, "If you're 18 and older, you have to have valid government-issued identification", and that is what you will be given instead of a driver license should you get a DUI in a car.
Here is the newly amended form of HB 949 effective 10/1/2023:
(7) A golf cart may not be operated on public roads or
streets by a person:
(a) Who is under 18 years of age unless he or she
possesses a valid learner's driver license or valid driver
license.
(b) Who is 18 years of age or older unless he or she
possesses a valid form of government-issued photographic
identification.
No loss of golf cart usage from a DUI.
