I don't think people outside TV are really aware of the difference in usage of golf carts here--in city streets and in car/truck traffic rather than on golf course turf that is soft, instead of on golf courses only where the owners/operators of the course prohibit kids under a certain age from driving a cart on their course.

At our previous club in another state, kids were prohibited from driving a cart on the course (or anywhere at the club) unless they were over 16 with a drivers' license. I think that's the way it should be here, but I doubt anybody will do it before some kids or others get killed or horribly maimed/dismembered/disabled in a horrible wreck.
