Default Golf Cart crossing 466a

Golf carts can cross 466a at Pinellas Pl to get to Lowe's, Publix, Target.

I thought it was a no-no, but

Legally? (though some don’t worry about details like that)

Okay, but I’m still skeptical

Default Directions?

And just exactly what path would you take? Sundance Trail appears to be a dead end; not providing passage to Seven Mile Drive.

I guess you could travel further up and go around Lowes to enter the parking lot...

Likely more carts crossing 466a from Beaumont than to. Posters from Beaumont on a previous thread acknowledged lots of cart owners there who use them for when shopping, going to Brownwood square (pools?). So far, I've only seen one golf cart in the Trailwinds Publix lot.

As far as I know, no golf carts or LSVs can cross 466A (45 MPH speed limit) and are not allowed to cross road with a 45 MPH limit.

They can at Stonecrest (cross 441/27), but that is a special dispensation from either Lady Lake or Summerfield

eh...no thanks. I was thinking of parking the cart in one of the lots along Burnsed Blvd. and walking over to Lowe's. I was wondering if the traffic lights have pedestrian crossings. The only reason I was even wondering about this is that my car has not been shipped down yet, and I have been here for 3 weeks without a car. However, I will be getting it delivered next week, so I'll just wait, but I was curious about it.
