The two issues are intertwined in that if you are going above speeds allowed by a golf cart, your insurer may invalidate your policy (and I say "may" in the sense that I see it as a possibility that they could do such a thing) .

The other issue is how the state views it. It is quite clear that any vehicle capable of going above 20 mph may no longer be classified as a golf cart and must therefore comply with LSV regulations, including insurance requirements.
