To answer Chacam, Florida Statutes, Title XXIII - Motor Vehicles, Section 316 - State Uniform Traffic Control gives all the answers. It's loooooooooong - so be prepared to read a lot. Section 316.212 covers Operation of Golf Carts on Certain Roadways. Once you digest all that and think you understand, then the exceptions start. It appears (to me) that counties, cities, municipalities, and maybe even some businesses (i.e. golf courses) can make exceptions to the state rules. Also some agencies (i.e. law enforcement) may disregard some state rules when operating a golf cart on "offical business" as may some of the municipal roadway maintenance crews.
