Was there a tag on the cart? Could have been a street legal LSV

en·ti·tled
/inˈtīdld,enˈtīdld/
adjective
believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment.
"kids who feel so entitled and think the world will revolve around them"

No sure how "entitled" comes close to describing the situation in the OP. Maybe confused or lost would be more correct, unless someone asked the driver if he felt he deserved to be on the road instead of the path in an unlicensed vehicle. As to the "24mph". BFD. 2/3rds of the carts here do that plus I am sure the OP had his radar gun out checking out the guy's speed or drove 20 feet behind him to check it out.

I don't believe it said that when I replied. Note the original post was edited after. (The one time I don't quote the original...)

Which (BTW) is as expensive as car insurance. Dangerous is inadequate to describe merging a LSV that can legally travel 25 mph with 3,000 - 4,000 pound vehicles traveling 40 mph (legally 35 or 30) depending on the street. Most golf carts traveling the streets/roads of TV got there by accident and are attempting to exit as soon as possible. Kudos to those that help them.

Good point. A lot of what we see as "entitled" driving can probably just be chalked up to the confusion one suffers with advancing age.

Nevertheless, whatever the cause, the problem still remains. As the Villages continues to grow the traffic congestion will only increase, and with it the chances for serious injury or death especially for those who operate golf carts or bicycles not just on MMPs physically separated from the roadways but on the roadways themselves. An 800 - lb. golf cart or a bicycle offers little protection when the other vehicle involved in an accident weighs 3,000 pounds or more.

I caught up to a visitor guy on the road he was clueless that he couldn't. They don't get instructions at rentals

No, just the Florida license plate.

It's probably mandatory to prevent every other cart lecturing you on what roads you can drive on, how you can cross certain roads and the limit at which you must do either at.
