I'm so happy...
to have read about altering golf cart speed & the Allstate agent's remark! I only wanted to go 18 MPH instead of 16 MPH, but would rather go slower than to negate my insurance!

Perhaps another way to look at this is that we all drive golf carts that have been altered to go faster. I think standard golf cart speed is 14 mph or thereabouts. Most of the ones converted and sold in TV have had high speed gears installed and the governors adjusted (or whatever it is they do) to bring the speed up to just under 20mph in order for them to still be in compliance with state law. If they are capable of going faster than that, regardless of whether or not you drive them faster, they are no longer considered to be golf carts, which is why they are governed at just under 20 mph.
I know this won't help convince the naysayers, but for those of us who are just trying to conform with the law, maybe it will help a bit.

To answer your question as to why we use multi mogul paths is simple. We do it to get where we want to go. For example the one along 466. No other reasonable way to get west of Morse Road.

How did this thread get resurrected with this previous post?

I have rented golf carts at the golf cart store downtown and those rental carts are very slow and that is not the drivers fault. To give someone a ticket because he is driving a rental cart which is slow by design would be totally unfair.

I had a motor go bad in my 27 MPH cart and had it replaced with one that gos about 20 to 22 wide open. I must say that I truly enjoy it more at the slower speed. I get passed allot now, but can smell the roses better.

After reading all of the above comments, as well as other topics in "Talk of the Villages" I realize what a wise man (my dad) once told me...." Never get in a discussion about politics or religion... you'll never change the other person's opinion" BUT I would like to add three more topics that pertain to The Villages. GOLF CARTS ... DOGS ... AND GUNS. It would be nice if we could agree to disagree in a more civil manner...... we don't have much time left folks, wouldn't it be nicer if it was spent in harmony. I thought The Villages was supposed to be "Florida's Friendliest Hometown"
