Grew up in the midwest and still visit... never seen it. Doesn't even pass the sniff test vs the weather.

- dboreham 8mo agoI've seen it in North Dakota fwiw, summer only obviously. Loads of them in Palm Springs also.

- kldg 8mo agoyeah, I can say that except for elder areas (not necessarily dedicated facilities, but there are things like "RV parks" which cater mostly to older folks but also families; they usually have 10mph speed limits), I've never seen someone driving a golf cart around town while I've lived in MI, OH, or PA. I do see people driving horse-drawn carriages, ATVs (probably illegally), snowmobiles (legally in some parts of MI during Winter or condition-dependent), and riding mowers (probably illegally) in and around towns, though. Very rarely, I see someone driving an e-bike; this rareness is mostly because they aren't allowed on the sidewalks here and there's no bike lane, so you need to drive and signal like a car, which is pretty awkward given how many e-bikes don't even come with real brake lights (though many falsely advertise red rear running lights as a brake light, which'd be illegal to drive unless you hand-signal whenever you brake).

- bonsai_spool 8mo agoThere are even laws about this: https://www.cityofdelafieldwi.gov/678/Golf-Cart-Permit https://www.cityofdelafieldwi.gov/678/Golf-Cart-Permit
