I like them DOT tires.

I know you switched them arter it was inspected. Right!

Mike,

(With my handy packet from DMV by my side ,)
The Florida Statutes, Section 316.2122 does say that, (e) "A county or municipality may prohibit the operation of low-speed vehicles on any road under its jurisdiction if the governing body of the county or municipality determines that such prohibition is necessary in the interest of safety."

(f) The Department of Transportation may do the same if they determine that such prohibition is necessary in the interest of safety.

I think what Cuzky is reffering to is some cities are "golf cart friendly" and don't require registration. He's probably wait'n on that so he don't have to spend the dough.

What I ment some cities ARE NOT cart frendly.A bunch of die hard and set in there ways

Non-DOT Tires... For me that should be the only grey area!

As for my tires, it was inspected off of palm beach lakes blvd as it sits. The inspector either didnt look or didnt care, that being said I think it says you have to have DOT tires... mike
PS im starting this week to build an lsv for a local city cop.

That's probably the one that I'll be using as well. As you've stated before and as others here have also stated, it's strictly a matter of what the inspector inspects or doesn't inspect. This is still a pretty new process for them as well as most of us. For example I didn't see reflectors on the side nor the rear of your cart besides the lack of DOT markings on tires and yet they too are also a requirement. It's gonna be pot luck I'm sure!
