The police do ticket golf carts on the public roads (even in the golf cart lanes) for exceeding 20 mph and the fines are hefty.

Also, if someone has goosed up their golf cart to run over 20 mph and they are involved in an accident, the insurance company will not pay off any claim.

Is the extra mph worth it?

I agree with the OP. It would really pay off for the Sheriff's dept to send a unit to Bailey Trail and keep him/her there. They would make a fortune and money well spent. I think it has really been getting dangerous out there.

This was a first. At the Mallory Gate, I pulled up to the resident side and swiped my card. I started to pull ahead when the car that was behind me almost hit the left side of my truck. He went to the contractors side of the gate, swiped his card and tried to speed ahead of me. I think he was trying to pass while going through the gates.

It was Not a snow bird. He's a local. I know where he lives because he followed me and finally turned into his house.

If this is a new thing, be careful.

I noticed the sheriff has a sign at the bridge. Speed limit is 10 mph. I didn't see too many people doing 10mph, but the sign is there. May they think it's more a suggestion.

It is most interesting to me that many of the same posters that decry any talk of mandatory seat belts in golf carts are all for massive policing for speeding.

You could certainly make an argument that seat belts are just as much of as safety issue as speed.

This video will provide EXCELLENT evidence in a lawsuit if and when this guy hits someone, and enable him to lose his shirt in court. Nice move.

I was traveling on Stillwater in my car with speeds between 30-32. I was passed on the right by a golf cart!

Perfect

Wow...a voice of reasoning on this topic. My cart is fast but I only pass folks if they're going under 22.I get a kick out of those that speed up only after they notice me passing.I 'll only pass when it's safe to do so and by having someone speed up while I'm passing them really isn't smart!

What gets me is golf carts that jump into traffic on Morse to pass a slower moving cart.The other night with heavy rain at night a cart left the golf cart path to pass me on Morse.Traffic was very heavy but this person risk their life in those conditions just to turn into De La Vista twenty seconds before me.I also wonder why a person feels the need to be among all those cars by having a street legal cart on Morse Blvd or Buena Vista.

Did the golf cart have Connecticut plate on rear? If so I was passed by the same cart recently on North Morse Blvd while I was in my car driving 30 MPH.

The police and sheriffs department are watching for speeding golf carts.... ticket is high

Oh it's getting silly… I pulled up to the 4 way stop sign in my golf cart by the hotel on Old Mill Run heading out of Sumter Landing at the same time as three other CARS so I let all 3 cars go first and then I start to go toward the golf cart path on the right--at the same time, the car behind one of those cars pulled out to make a left hand turn… I stopped -- he motioned me to continue and he stopped.. Furious I motioned him to move.. and then I followed him. What is this..I had right of way, he could have hit me… he clearly was behind the other car…I took the defensive view of his car was bigger than me.. Do these drivers not think??

Golf carts don't speed, people do.

I believe an LSV is allowed over 20-MPH but not more than 25-MPH, 49 C.F.R.s.571 and s. 316.2122. This operated on streets where posting is 35-MPH or less. Gas or Electric. Now you must be licensed, insured, and equipped with the safety features as a car. So they are paying for the privilege of use of the road as a car does.
