Not sure if you're being sarcastic or serious so just in case (and for those who are new to golf cart living):

The governor of a golf cart is a part of the vehicle that sets the maximum speed. It's a mechanical thingamabob (technical term).

There are apps on your phone like maps to give you an idea of your speed. Maybe the sheriff should random undercover in a golf cart radar traps We'll see how many stay closer to that 20 mile mark

Absolutely!!!!! God forbid someone goes 21 mph in a golf cart. I think we should add the death penalty if convicted

It is never easy to say goodbye to a friend. Be thankful always for the good times you shared.

Am I the only person who pulls over safely or slows down and waves by me, faster drivers, allowing them to pass, rather than causing a back up of carts behind me?

Maybe I'm wrong but I feel this is a much better idea than wanting police to be taken off the streets and diverting them from doing real police work.
