In Florida, golf carts cannot exceed 20mph and do not require seat belts.
If the vehicle can exceed 20mph but not 25mph then it is considered to be a Low Speed Vehicle (LSV). Certain safety equipment is required for an LSV which may include seat belts.
If the vehicle can exceed 25mph then it falls into a different category.
Most golf carts do not have seat belts but many do. Some drivers would not operate one without seat belts. Many golf cart fatalities result from the driver being ejected from the cart and hitting their head - something a seat belt might prevent.

Confirmation bias is real; I can find any number of articles that say so.
