If the legal limit is 20 mph for a cart, I wonder why so many can easily go 35 - of course, a car can go over 100 mph and there is no speed limit anywhere in the US over 70 (but I am sure someone will correct me on that).

I have never had anyone yell or curse at me when driving a golf cart at 19 mph. I also do not yell at them when they pass me like I am standing still. Sure, I pass carts going very slow - like the rentals from the Villages Golf Cart Store. I always pass carefully. I have not been passed carelessly by others.
Many states in he west have 80 MPH legal limits on Interstate Highways.
