CHATHAM COUNTY, Ga. () — Officials are reminding folks of the rules of the road when it comes to golf carts in unincorporated Chatham County.

In certain areas sanctioned by the county, golf carts are permitted to travel on public roads. The Landings, Isle of Hope, Burnside Island, and Bradley Point Road are the only communities granted this approval, according to the official.

If you are in a designated area, there are still rules that have to be followed.

To drive a golf cart, you are required to possess a valid driver’s license, and owners need to have either liability insurance or a homeowner’s insurance policy that includes a rider for the golf cart.

Golf carts can also only drive on streets where the posted speed limit is 25 mph or below and golf cart speeds can’t exceed 25 mph.

Even in approved areas, golf carts cannot be operated after 9 p.m.

Golf carts must also be equipped with the following safety features:

  • Power switch
  • Brakes
  • Horn
  • Back-up warning system
  • Rear window mirror
  • Headlights and taillights
  • Turn signal
  • Seat belt hip restraints

Officials suggest that golf cart owners and drivers familiarize themselves with the Chatham County ordinance regarding motorized carts. This information can be accessed by visiting the Chatham County website, as stated by the officials.

You can also find information about how your neighborhood can become a designated golf cart-approved community on the county website,
