Local Driving – South Shore Florida

Where golf carts and LSVs can be driven in Sun City Center, Apollo Beach, Ruskin, Wimauma, Parrish and the rest of South Shore Florida.

Sun City Center has an established golf-cart transportation network and golf carts are widely used for everyday transportation.

However, there are restrictions regarding which roads may be used and where major roads can be crossed.

Residents and visitors should familiarize themselves with the current Sun City Center golf cart map and applicable Hillsborough County and Florida rules.

Regular golf carts cannot simply travel along State Road 674 as though they were automobiles.

Sun City Center has designated cart paths and approved crossing locations that allow residents to travel around the community.

Always follow the current posted signs and community golf-cart map.

Golf-cart use on public roads depends on whether the particular roadway has been legally designated or otherwise permits golf-cart operation.

Do not assume that because golf carts are common in a neighborhood they are legal on every public street.

If broader road access is important to you, an LSV may be a more appropriate option.

It depends on the specific road and applicable local regulations.

A traditional golf cart does not automatically have the same road privileges as a registered LSV.

Before using one on public roads, verify that golf-cart operation is permitted on your intended route.

Golf-cart legality depends on the specific roads and any applicable local designation.

If your primary purpose is neighborhood transportation on regular public streets, ask us about the differences between a golf cart and an LSV before purchasing.

Golf-cart operation depends on the particular community and roads you plan to use.

Some communities may have permitted golf-cart operation while surrounding public roads may not.

Because Parrish is growing rapidly, we recommend evaluating your specific routes before deciding between a traditional golf cart and an LSV.

For customers outside established golf-cart communities, an LSV often provides greater flexibility because it is a titled and registered motor vehicle that may operate on qualifying public roads.

However, the best choice depends on your neighborhood and normal routes.

We’ll be happy to help you compare both before you buy.
