Lately there's been a lot of talk about speeding golf carts, people getting costly tickets, accidents, etc. When we recently purchased our golf cart, there was no way to tell how fast we were going. On TOTV we found recommendations for a man who lives in The Villages who could install a speedometer on our golf cart -- the same kind used on some bicycles. He calibrates the speedometer to your exact wheel size so it is absolutely accurate. He came well recommended, so we called him.
While he was doing the work for us, he explained that he pretty much does this for other people as a hobby. He got started by installing one on his own cart, then his friends wanted it done, then neighbors, and so on.
He installed our speedometer and we love it. Not only can you tell how fast you are going but it also has other features and it lights up for night time use.
So, if you are worried about getting a ticket, give him a call. His name is Bob Sain and his phone is 352-399-5115. His email is

And, he's a really nice guy, too!
