I did a quick review of the Florida statute regarding golf cart operation. I don't see a requirement for brake lights or turn signals unless the cart is operated between sunset and sunrise. I think it would be hard to ticket someone for something that isn't required in the first place. (I've observed a few carts without any lights.)

Common sense should prevail - the lights were put there to make a safer vehicle, covering them with a golf towel just opens up another opportunity for an accident.
