Street-legal rules

Sunset Beach — what you can and can't do on a cart

No verified municipal ruleset on file — confirm locally before riding on public roads.

The rules

  1. We do not yet have a verified municipal ruleset on file for Sunset Beach. Confirm allowed roads, speed limits, and LSV requirements with the host and the local town office before riding on public roads.
  2. Every passenger must be in a designated seat with a functioning seat belt where required. No riding on laps, bumpers, or cargo beds.
  3. No riding under the influence. The same DUI rules that apply to cars apply to golf carts.
  4. Yield to pedestrians and bicycles. Use headlights and taillights whenever visibility is reduced.

Local tips

  • Not every cart here is street-legal — check the listing badge if you plan to cross Sunset Blvd.
  • The pontoon-bridge era is long gone, but the vibe stuck around. Slow is the point.

Summaries of publicly posted municipal ordinances. Guidance only — you are responsible for following current local law. Verify with the town office before riding on public roads.
