The bill amends the existing law regarding the operation of golf carts on state and county highways in South Dakota. Specifically, it raises the maximum posted speed limit for these operations from twenty-five miles per hour to thirty-five miles per hour. This change allows golf carts to be legally operated on highways where the speed limit is thirty-five miles per hour or less.
Additionally, the bill clarifies that golf cart operators must still adhere to all statutory requirements related to motor vehicle operation within the state, ensuring that safety regulations remain in place despite the increased speed limit allowance.
