........Note: Since I am often in my front yard I can hear WHICH GOLF CARTS are speeding by how loudly their engines are straining. Also , I notice older Golf Carts leave the SMELL of unburned gasoline behind them - especially the ones going over 20 MPH. Also I " pity the fool" that buys a USED golf cart that had its speed jacked up because the engine will likely be ruined.
Perhaps, since this means so much and gets your undies all in a bunch, consider this. Apply and get accepted at the police academy, then join the force in your local jurisdiction, hang out on the street upon which you live and give out all the tickets you like. Be sure to nail all those golf carts going 20.1 mph
