Well it sure would be nice if these laws (or local ordinances?) on open containers while
sitting in a vehicle and
not operating it were published somewhere!
I looked in the Florida Driver's Handbook (
http://www.fpts.us/documents/Florida...r_Handbook.pdf ) and the only mention of an open container is on p. 16, where it says "open container
by an operator" (gets 3 points).
Sitting in a golf cart (listening to music at the square) with a beer can open is not being "an operator".
I hope somebody in law enforcement or an attorney can explain this TV golf cart scenario better.
