Are Golf Carts or LSVs Allowed on Sidewalks in Port St. Lucie?
Port St. Lucie distinguishes between ordinary golf carts and registered low-speed vehicles. LSVs generally operate under Florida motor-vehicle law, while golf-cart use depends on roads or areas specifically authorized by the city or another governing authority. Because local maps, enforcement practices and community rules may change, drivers should confirm the current rules before using a golf cart on public roads.
Do not assume that a golf cart can be driven on Port St. Lucie roads or sidewalks just because it is used in a private community or nearby city.
