Normally, a motor vehicle operated on public roads in Florida must be registered and insured as described in
Section 320 of the Florida Statutes. But that law provides an exemption for “Golf Carts” operated on certain roads designated for golf cart operation as is the case in TV. And section 320.001(22) defines a golf cart as a vehicle that is “Not Capable” of exceeding 20mph.
So, if you are driving a golf cart in TV that is capable of exceeding 20mph on one of the public roads that has a golf cart lane, the authorities can nail you for driving an unregistered vehicle regardless of how fast or slow you were actually driving. And this is a much more serious offense than a simple speeding ticket.
