Work with the Sheriff to measure the cart speed on the path and wait for the cart to cross a county road. If I'm not mistaken the offense would still be driving an illegal cart on a county road.
The district could just ban the driver or the cart from private property and ask the sheriff to assist with a trespass order.
Publish the names and pictures in the Sun of the speeders.
Ban speeders from the golf reservation system.
If speed bumps are installed the only winners will be the cart towing and repair services.

Lets really crack down on outlaws that are driving 22 mph in a golf cart. I suggest pull all law enforcement officers that are on patrol for red light runners and school zone speeders, and use them to patrol the streets looking for fast golf carts. If we assign priorities we don't really need officers covering armed robbery and rape when we have golf carts flying around at 22 mph. We also could have the SWAT team members doing a more meaningful job watching golf carts. Seriously now, how much harm is done by a golf cart driving 2 mph over the limit? Does it endanger you? Does it bother you that he passes you? Would someone please give me a good answer. I'd hate to call the police because my home is being broken into and have a response delay because the cop was hiding behind a tree looking for a fast golf cart. A lot of people have it in their head that once a law is written that it is the way it should be. What if the law said that golf carts could go 25mph? Now going 22 mph wouldn't be a problem would it? Perfectly safe now.
