3. Do you really want police chasing golf carts that are going 4 mph over 20 mph - or would you really rather them chase/catch burglars, robbers and shooters and other real criminals?
4. If you like going 19 mph or 20 mph then do so. Quit complaining about those who don’t want to do so - pull over and let them go by if you’re not in a hurry as you say.
5. Gas golf cart’s speed can be adjusted by turning two nuts.
6. Electric golf cart’s speed can be adjusted, too, but it requires programming software and cable for the controller.

Next up - Bikes on the Multi-Model paths and the dangers they present. After that, Pedestrians on the Multi-Model paths - my God, people actually want to walk?

Sheesh! This is all old news. Let it go! Just Share & be Considerate.
Golf cart accidents are so "nil" that more than ten have died.

Police CAN make arrests on the multi-modal paths. They are public access which is entirely different from private property.

The point of concern shoud be the blase' attitude of supposedly mature adults blatantly breaking the law. A cart that can exceed 20mph is not merely speeding but is an unregistered and uninsurable vehicle.
