Cape Charles — what you can and can't do on a cart

Golf carts permitted on streets ≤ 25 mph.

The rules

  1. Public-road use is permitted on streets posted at or below 25 mph.
  2. Standard golf carts may be used where registered with the town, rather than LSV plating.
  3. Driver must be at least 16 years old and hold a valid state driver's license.
  4. Golf carts with a town license, annual inspection and insurance may use town roads with speed limits of 25 mph or less, driven by licensed drivers; Virginia motor vehicle laws apply.
  5. Every passenger must be in a designated seat with a functioning seat belt where required. No riding on laps, bumpers, or cargo beds.
  6. No riding under the influence. The same DUI rules that apply to cars apply to golf carts.
  7. Yield to pedestrians and bicycles. Use headlights and taillights whenever visibility is reduced.

Local tips

  • Rules differ by town — confirm allowed roads, speed limits and any permit requirements with your host before riding.
