I think that street legal golf carts are required to have seat belts.
I spent a number of years as a firefighter and responded to numerous auto accidents. It was very common to see more injuries to those occupants not wearing a seat belt. But when it comes to the golf carts I am not convinced of the need for seat belts. Problem for me is that when we were in an accident last year my wife's injuries were worse than mine because she was driving and stayed in the cart while I was thrown out and landed in some bushes. I am certain that if we had seat belts on we both would have suffered worse injuries than we did. Then again that is just my opinion.
