    Good to know

    • A golf cart tops out at about 20 mph and is not built to a federal road standard. A low-speed vehicle (LSV) is the street-legal class: 4 wheels, 20–25 mph, a 17-digit VIN, and FMVSS 500 safety equipment (lights, mirrors, seat belts, windshield) — allowed on Vermont roads posted 35 mph or less.
    • Vermont publishes no LSV-specific fee line; secondary sources point to the standard car rate (~$76/yr, $35 title) but the DMV schedule could not be verified this review — call VT DMV before budgeting.
