In other words, carry separate personal liability insurance as well as the normal vehicle insurance. |

Re: Caught on Fire
What do those dorks know about your gear ratio??? (all other parts aside). Mine is/was registered for street use as a LSV (between 20 & 25mph), it was originally a golf cart, but the title says LSV. They go by the title. When i wrecked my marathon electric, they paid up, no questions asked (my rates went up $ .50/month).

If you injure someone with a modified golf cart and they sue, they will name everybody that ever had anything to do with the cart in the lawsuit. If you are the one that modified the cart from its original design, you could very well be the only one without a chair to sit on when the music stops. Again, it depends on how much money is involved. I'm not actually as pessimistic as I sound, but I have testified as an expert witness in a couple of medical malpractice cases, so I know in civil court you are considered negligent until you can prove otherwise. |

Re: Caught on Fire
10-4 on the civil case, totally different than a vehicle damage claim to the insurance co.

Re: Caught on Fire
Reason #64 why....in addition to the same full tort and top limit vehicle liability limits I carry on my cart, I also have an umbrella policy of $1-million to cover "stupid stuff" that may occur.

Re: Caught on Fire
I wouldn't tell the insurance company about that! Sometimes the less you say the better off you are! I learned that when I was I kid. But know I say something and my dad says so you done that I change the subject real fast!

Re: Caught on Fire

Re: Caught on Fire
When you are pulled over for speeding, and the cop ask you how fast you were going....or if he ask "Do you know how fast you were going?", ALWAYS answer YES. Now, he may then ask you how fast. You can either say nothing....or you can say "the speed limit"......but NEVER say "I don't know." If you say "I don't know" you have now opened the door for the cop to say you were driving whatever speed he decided's you were driving. Even if you were not driving that fast.
