That would be speeding too.
Since most golf carts don't have speedometers I think a lot of folks who think they're driving the speed limit are actually blazing along at a ripsnorting 17 mph or so. These are the same folks you see on I-95 driving 55 mph in the left lane with their turn signal flashing. Then they whine because all the rude speeders are pulling up behind them and flashing their lights for them to move over.
