Any golf cart capable of exceeding 20 MPH is no longer a golf cart. A ticket is issued based on it being unlicensed vehicle. Add to that it is not properly equipped. Plus it is improperly insured. To top it all off, it must be reconfigure so it will not be capable of exceeding 20 MPH.
Oh yes, let's not forget the cost of souping it up in the first place.
I would like to know the actual cost. If I did I would be tempted to place a sign on the back of my cart stating "PASSING ME COULD COST YOU $X,XXX.00". On second thought I wouldn't do that. It might anger some one who "carries" and I might get shot.

i too would be afraid of being shot - yes they were out on Belvedere today by the bonnybrook rec center. one of the offers had a motorcycle and a radar gun - i think they were giving warnings not tickets as i pulled into the mailboxes i saw three people get pulled over they gave each a piece of paper and did not ask for id so i am assuming it was a notice of the law. i hope it puts a stop to the fast carts - it seems there are more and more fast carts maybe its the baby boomers feel the need to go fast??? all you fast cart owners beware of the gendarme.
