So this is probably a stupid question but knowing my father is going to want to buy a golf car down the line and knowing he never has owned one...

I see folks talking about street legal and regular cart...they can all use the cart paths throughout throughout the villages correct?
The laws apply to everyone but some have the idea that's just for everyone but them. As for generating revenue, who cares? Better have those not adhering to the laws adding to the cofers rather than raising everyone's taxes. Law enforcement departments are not created to raise revenue. They are to protect the public and catching speeders regardless of their mode of travel is a vital part of that protection.

Simple rule...obey the laws and be happy when it's someone else getting a ticket for not.
