Default Clarification please

I understand the "speeding" of over 20 mph on the public roads.

For the "open container" of beer - is that also on the public roads only or is it illegal to have an open container while on the multi-modal path as well? Could a police officer stop you for open container on the crossover of public road to the other side of multi-modal path?

I have a Polaris Breeze with the flip down rear seat. Seat belts both front and back. I got mine at The Villages Golf Car Store at Colony. I check mine out for speed every now and then by using my GPS unit. Mine is unchanged from the factory and the speed according to the GPS is between 19 and 20 mph.

I also hope there are no fools out there who are driving golf carts without liability insurance. That could cost you a bundle of money - or even your home.
