Barefoot, you are absolutely right. Something just does not make sense. There are a couple of possibilities.
1) It really did not happen. The initial post says that a neighbor told someone that a couple next to them got ticketed. Well, as we all know, things do get mixed up when handed down second and third hand.
2) If it did happen - the legal technicality might be the keys were in the switch. Stupid technicality, I know, but it makes it a legal infraction to have an open container in a vehicle either moving or stopped with keys in the switch. Just remove the key and you are safe.
Downeaster made a couple of excellent remarks about the costs of upgrading the speed of your cart - especially the insurance one.
