My golf cart can go 25 miles an hour and the speed limit is 20 miles an hour----15 in some places in TV and I travel the speed limit and get a ticket. Doesn't sound reasonable to me. It doesn't matter if its gas or electric you need more speed in order to travel the speed limit up a hill here in TV. Bottom line----who is going to pull you over for traveling the speed limit? Just saying.

The problem is that the definition of a golf cart says that it is not
capable of exceeding 20mph. So, if your cart is capable of exceeding that, you no longer have a cart, you have an LSV and it must be equipped and registered and insured as such. It does not matter how fast you drive. True, if you don't exceed the speed limits, it is unlikely you'll get stopped by the sheriff. But if you're involved in an incident, and they can show your cart is capable of more than 20, you could be in trouble.
