I have been passed, while in my golf cart, by other golf carts on "my" side of The Villages. We don't have MMPs, these are all public roads.
Also, Morse Blvd from 466 to El Camino Real has a posted speed limit of 30mph, and a golf cart lane on each side of the road. There is ALSO an MMP up closer to the roundabout, but it ends eventually and you still have to drive your cart on Morse, eventually. I have been passed by golf carts, while driving in my golf cart, on Morse Blvd. My cart can go as fast as 21 now, but for quite awhile something was wrong with it and I couldn't even get it past 19.4, and would sometimes not go past 18.6. At an average of 19mph for me, you'd need around a quarter of a mile, going 20mph, to pass me. They were passing me with ease within the span of half a city block. I don't know how fast they were going. I just know they were going well past the 20mph speed limit for golf carts, and they were driving golf carts, not street legal carts.

There is no golf cart speed limit in Florida.
Golf cart - line vehicles that are capable of exceeding 20mph are at a minimum LSVs. They may be unregistered LSVs and should be cited but they do not fit the legal definition on Florida of a golf cart.
