Besides, parking in the Health Care Center lot is only a few dozen feet away. A short walk to not break the law is no big deal.
The statute:

Upon its determination that golf carts may be operated on a given road, the department shall post appropriate signs on the road to indicate that such operation is allowed.


Are you serious? I've never seen a single sign in TV that said golf carts are allowed. I guess that golf carts in all of TV are illegal then but they just never told us.

No law is being broken driving to Freedom Plaza in a golf cart. I never said drive on the sidewalk. You can get there driving from one private property to another and crossing one unopened local road, which is entirely legal.
