Transcription:

The short answer is yes. If you are in a location that you’d be able to get one in a car which is if you’re on the public street or highway or if you’re at a public vehicular area, then golf cart is a motor vehicle just like a car.

If you’re on a golf course and drinking, then it’s slightly different.

Yes, you’re not in a public vehicular area. However, this is something that I’m guilty of, and a lot of people are too. By driving the golf cart while impaired in the parking lot of the golf course, you could be charged with DWI.

Be safe, and make sure that when you get into that public area, let the carboy take over from that point forward.

    Excellent services provided.

    Attorney Frances Knox helped my family in providing much needed legal documents. She was very prompt, knowledgeable and went well out of her way to help us. She provided excellent legal services and was very congenial and easy to work with throughout the process. I highly recommend her as an attorney.

    Exceptional Legal Representation & True Professional, Genuine Individual

    I first met Allen after he was recommended to me by a friend, and I couldn't be happier with the service that he provided. He demonstrated a unique attention to detail in my case, as well as expressed a genuine interest in me as a person. Through a great deal of hard work, Allen was able to appeal my case and get all of my charges dismissed. I couldn't be more grateful for him and his assistant, Sherry, for their legal and personal support during such a difficult time. Hiring Allen was the greatest decision I've ever made, and I would recommend Allen to anyone seeking exceptional legal representation.
