Do Traffic Laws Apply to Golf Carts?

Absolutely!. Golf carts must comply with all applicable traffic laws, including:

  • Obeying all traffic signs and signals.
  • Adhering to speed limits (unmodified golf carts typically max out at 20-25 mph).
  • No DUI.
  • Parking only in designated areas.

For added safety, practice defensive driving and remain alert to other road users. That includes, for instance, using proper turn signals, yielding to pedestrians, avoiding distractions such as talking on the phone while driving, etc.
