(A) The establishment of a golf cart chapter is necessary to address the interests of public safety. Golf carts are not designed or manufactured to be used on public streets, roads and highways, and the city in no way advocates or endorses their operation on roads. The city, by regulating such operation, is merely trying to address obvious safety issues, and the adoption of this chapter is not to be relied upon as a determination that operation on roads is safe or advisable if done in accordance with this chapter.
(B) All persons who operate or ride upon carts on roads do so at their own risk and peril, and must be observant of and attentive to the safety of themselves and others, including their passengers, other motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians. The city has no liability under any theory of liability for permitting carts to be operated on roads under special legislation granted by the state legislature. Any person who operates a cart must procure liability insurance sufficient to cover the risks involved in using a cart on the roads of the city.
