Simply AND BOLDLY put, THE SPEED LIMIT FOR A GOLF CART IS 20 MPH. Anything beyond this is moot. Should there be any discussion from that point on?
This reminds me of my writing about the person complaining about getting a ticket in a school zone with the lights flashing because of being from out-of-state, without an iota of thought that it was that individual who chose to fly through the school zone.
Or the people who have said that Buena Vista Blvd “looks like” it was designed for speeds higher than 35 mph and so choose to drive faster. When ticketed, I supposed we’ll hear that “it’s the road’s fault!”
What part of “the speed limit for a golf cart is 20 mph” is incomprehensible?

Sorry, but where do you see anything simply and boldly put that the speed limit for golf carts is 20MPH.
First of all there are no speed limits for vehicles. There are speed limits for road. What the law says is that if a golf cart is capable of going 20mph or faster, they must have all of the same safety equipment as an automobile and must be registered and insured. There is nothing in that statement that says anything about speed limits on multi modal paths.
As far as I know LSVs capable of going up to 25 mph can use the multi modal paths. There are also scooters that have and engine of 49 CCs an smaller that can be registered for the street and are also allowed on the paths.
I have seen nothing that stipulates a speed limit on any of the multi modal paths.
