If a golf cart is traveling on a road with no golf cart lane is it legal to pass them on the left when conditions permit?

Any help is appreciated

Bruce, all of the above is solid information. One more piece of advice. You will see streets such as Canal , Bailey Trail, etc wherein about 100 yards or so from an intersectionthere are markings for a merger of golf carts because you are approaching an intersection, normally controlled by a traffic light.

Unfortunately what you will experience at some point is that a car driver will speed up to get ahead of a golf cart driver. Why?
