Maybe it is time to register each golf cart and have a type of license plate for identification??

Only the street legal golf carts require a license plate and registration. Golf carts in general are considered more like a bicycle than a vehicle.

That's what we need, more state registration fee!

Thanks for making me realize how lucky to have my cars in Florida and not have to waste a day at the gas station to get an inspection….and pay 50 bucks for nothing.

And so the Socialism begins in the villages

I would rather see them spend the money to Bluetooth the entry gates and eliminate the physical car pass.

So, paying fee will help.

I've got a better idea. Give 10% of the homes in the Villages to disabled vets. The other 90% of homeowners have time to support and show their appreciation. How do we 'give' them away? Since everyone living there has taken care of business over a lifetime they can donate their homes. They've already got one foot in the grave. Totally voluntary. Might take a decade or 2. No need for government involvement, just an adjustment in the rules.

Let's see. 130k people living there now. That would make room for 13k vet couples.

Yessss!! I think vehicles should have a barcode pass on the window.
We had them in Kingsmill in Williamsburg, Va. and they worked great.

Just call Joe @ (845) 542-7365‬ and he will come to your home, clone your gate pass and stick it inside the driver mirror on your car. Then you drive up to the gate and it will magically open. Don't have to keep up with those white cards. Best $25 spent.

Carts are not like cars. Instead they are considered more like lawnmowers. No license tags

Too many senseless rules creates rebels and rebellion.

Peachtree city in Georgia regulates golf carts, it's a golf cart community of 38000.
