The problem is this; with anything that requires that much paperwork and manpower and oversight, there is bound to be a substantial increase in cost and substantial difficulty in keeping track as thousands of golf carts change hands and some even get stolen. Is it worth the effort in the end? I have a huge amount of skepticism about that. |
Golf cart speeding in the Villages is becoming increasingly worse every day. Just to give an example of the need for a crack down I recently saw a yesteryear cart for sale advertising speed of 45mph+. My cart is set at 22 and every day many carts pass me going a lot faster than 25mph.
Just an opinion. Bill |
This may require some legislative action. If so, I don’t see it happening.

Lets face it - there are some folks driving (golf carts and cars) that are half asleep at the wheel. The speed limit is 20 MPH so if you are watching the scenery at 15 mph what is the problem if you are passed by somebody doing the speed limit? Perhaps they are in route to an appointment either with a Doctor or a cold pitcher of tea or any number of reasons. Lighten up - we are all in this together.
I will note that there are some really self righteous comments here - I would bet some of these drivers have NEVER ever exceeded a speed limit - its truly a wonderful thing to be that good. He said with tongue firmly planted in cheek...... |

Or he had a Lifestyle cart set at 12mph?

You have varying top speeds set typically at 19.5-23 MPH and some set their own carts to 27 MPH (those people are not the problem). Since gas golf carts have near zero throttle linearity, the accelerator pedal is basically just an on / off switch. See the problem? Just have to live with it.
