Allstate on Warm Springs. Under $100/year for a 2014.
Fantastic coverage as well.

New Yamaha cart last November. Full coverage was $80 a year without towing. $90 a year with towing. The towing insurance thru TV Golf Cars was $60 a year.

from?

Lots of numbers for the premium cost, but I don't see any post that quotes the amount of liability coverage the policy provides.

How much liability coverage do you get for $132 per year?

I pay $110 with progressive. I have a 2020 Yamaha quietech

I found older threads...hoping to get more up-to-date responses.

We paid a similar amount to Progressive for our 2018 Yamaha after considerable research found it to be quite reasonable.

Cost, value, and price.

Insurance policies are simply one risk transfer tool, the insured pays a $ amount certain to transfer a given amount of risk to the insurer. Sounds simple enough, right? If we break it down, the value of the cart is a known, e.g., $xxx.xx for a replacement or repair in excess of the deductible which is retained (premium + deductible = cost). However, when it comes to 3rd party liability as a result of an alleged accident that is another story.

One way to look at the value of the product and premium paid is what we risk by not obtaining liability coverage on a cart? Consider asking ourselves “what do I have to loose if the worst were to occur?” Trading $130 per year for the knowledge that my defense and if needed an indemnity obligation to a 3rd party would be covered is to me worth all of the liability insurance policies (primary and umbrella/excess) I purchase.

At this point in life why should we risk an uncertain outcome of an injury or an accident for a small amount? The physical damage to my cart, well that’s simple mathematics. Rate/Value decision, if the cart is old and after deductible it should be a simple decision.

As noted by other commentators on this thread many feel the price, value and cost are worth it however the only reference to required golf cart insurance is for LSV’s and for that see the FL statutes.

I couldn’t locate any current figures for 2025 showing what percentage of golf cart owners in Florida—or in The Villages—purchase insurance. Although liability risks and legal requirements significantly differ between traditional carts and LSVs, available information doesn’t include actual adoption rates.

I recommend always consulting legal, finance and insurance professionals when making such decisions. My notes here are for education purposes only and simply my opinion, and should not be considered risk management advice.

Sounds about right...

We just put a golf cart coverage rider on our homeowners policy, price about $60 as I recall.

Better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.
Your talking something like
$3 a week. Foolish not to have it.

[ElDiabloJoe]

For what it is worth (comparisons-wise), I pay about $11/month for each of my jet skis up north via Progressive-Hawaii.

My cart insurance is up north with a large company (Erie) that I do not believe insures in Florida. It is also reasonably priced. Will find the paperwork later and add to this post.

We insure a 2016 CRV, 2019 Ezgo, 2025 Evolution, & Umbrella policy with Progressive. Our 2019 Ezgo has just liability and towing for $80.00 a year and seems a close comparison to your 2020 Yamaha (not sure if gas vs electric and/or multi discount makes a difference)

Cannot stress enough how much insurance is needed even though it is not required. My husband had an accident, and the insurance was greatly appreciated!

We pay $180 with Progressive for full coverage on our 2025
