golfnut - it wouldn't need to say anything about speed - if the definition of a "golf cart" or "insured vehicle" on the golf cart policy can be interpreted as one going under 20 mph (since that is how golf carts are designed, or assumed to be designed) or anything similar, then it doesn't meet the definition of the insured vehicle. It wouldn't NEED to say anything about speed as they are not designed to go more than 20 mph.

It may or may not have been tested in court (since this is Florida, I'm betting it has been) but if the Allstate spokesperson said they test for speed then it appears they are being denied.
