The only time I have seen a Golf cart impounded is by law enforcement, or a lawfirm. I have been expert witness on a few golf cart related accidents including 1 wrongful death case.

As far as "losing everything", it may not be a literal everything BUT definitely substantial enough to make you wish you had paid that paltry $100 or so for insurance.

I have never heard (neither factual stories nor urban myths) of a golf cart being impounded after an accident, then subsequently the owner being denied coverage by an insurance company.

I'm not attempting to defend those owners who modify their carts to exceed the legal limit.

Have I missed reports of impounding and insurance denial?

Thoughts?
I believe you will find insurers don't challenge many claims as it is too costly. The model just pays claims and spreads cost across all policy holders.
