    • A golf cart tops out at about 20 mph and is not built to a federal road standard.

    • LSVs only became street-legal in Connecticut in May 2024 (Public Act 24-20) — the DMV had not yet published an LSV-specific fee schedule as of this review. Call CT DMV before budgeting.
    • CT DMV explicitly bars homemade or modified vehicles from LSV registration.
