Hey neighbor! I live right down from you on the opposite corner! I'm looking into making our cart street legal. But the more I look, the more I think I'll keep riding dirty! Haha.

[@BrandonActionJackson]

If you ever need some tips I can help you out! Love seeing a neighbor on my videos stop by and say hello atleast

[@martinvillarreal6859]

Great video and information! Thanks

[@jeremyh3614]

Where did you purchase the windshield wiper? It seems to be the hardest thing to find.

[@gatrscooter100]

You don’t need it

[@henrysmith8012]

The state of Ms. Does not tag golf karts. My small town is fighting the Gestapo now on street legal karts.

[@alfredobrown]

thanks! very informative

[@josephbig-xu2su]

You probably need all that stuff. Where your areas but here in Jacksonville, it says all I need is headlights turn signals seatbelts, rear lights in the rearview mirror and the windshield but that’s all.

[@BrandonActionJackson]

Unless it’s the city of Jacksonville saying that it’s not true. Nothing is street legal in Florida until it’s insured/registered

[@BrandonActionJackson]

Because you definitely can’t get a tag without everything mentioned in the video

[@bruce9648]

@JosephBig-xu2su..WRONG..😂😂😂..State law will override any delusions you have that say you don't need what this vid says

[@jasonjarvi5116]

Who do you use for insurance? Having a difficult time finding any companies that’ll insure. Did you need insurance before you can get a vin? Thanks!

[@BrandonActionJackson]

@@jasonjarvi5116 you need vin first and I went through American modern through an insurance broker

[@aukfan33]

Where did you purchase the windshield?

[@BrandonActionJackson]

From my local cart shop but you can find them online quite a bit they have as1-as5 ratings

[@nathanheckathorne8061]

I'm near Panama City and I'm curious where you actually got it weighed. The application says you cannot use CAT scales. Thanks.

[@BrandonActionJackson]

@@nathanheckathorne8061 im in bay county as well. You need to take it to steel field landfill

[@nathanheckathorne8061]

Great tip! Thanks for letting me know.

If I buy a golf cary that’s street legal ready. Can I just put on the bill of sale it came with A,B,C and D and avoid the invoice process? Also do you know how much total cost it is after the dmv fees?

[@BrandonActionJackson]

Yes you can but you have to list EVERY item and not miss one part ESPECIALLY the parking brake that already comes in the cart. But you’ve gotta pay the taxes when you get it titled and then once you go to the dmv you have to pay 300 dollars for a new car on the road fee and this is of course after you’ve purchased lsv insurance

[@orlando7440]

Are there turn signals by the headlights or just the mirror ones? My 2015 Drive PTV has factory halogen headlights, and brake lights, but no turn signals. It seems if I buy the aftermarket turn signal kit, I would have to modify the wiring to what I currently have or swap out the headlights/tail lights.

[@BrandonActionJackson]

Yes there are but they aren’t pre wired

[@BrandonActionJackson]

You should also have Three wire taillights for blinkers

[@user-gb3en2gd6y]

Are there any manufacturers such as 'Epic' that make Florida street legal carts?

[@BrandonActionJackson]

I think ez go is finally selling an lsv but most golf cart dealers that sell carts will convert to lsvs especially in Florida

[@user-gb3en2gd6y]

@@BrandonActionJackson 👍 thank you

[@user-wg1py7fd4v]

Hello, wanted to understand about parking brake. The units as shown in the video seem to be related to mechanical brakes most probably 2 nos on the rear axle. Is there a requirement or a system/device for parking brake suitable for hydraulic brakes? Besides, Tail Light head light need to be DOT compliance as well as the safety belt ?

[@BrandonActionJackson]

Yes there is. The factory parking brake must be listed in the bill of sale

[@Coolcarting]

@@BrandonActionJackson Do you mean the bill of sale for when the golf cart was brand new? Or can it be on the bill of sale when you have bought a golf cart second hand? If I buy a used golf cart on marketplace and the seller hand writes a bill of sale with all the items on the bill of sale, will this work?

[@BrandonActionJackson]

@@Coolcarting yes a bill of sale second hand is just fine you just need signatures and to include everything needed

[@Patriotic_Villain]

My wife and I have read the statute over and over . It does not say anything about a “dot” windshield. It also doesn’t say anything about a wiper or a triangle. Can you explain please?

[@BrandonActionJackson]

In the state of florida? A dot approved windshield is 100 percent required

[@johnny1974ize]

The golf cart has a Vin number look on the steering shaft is the serial number serial number is the Vin number
i’m registering mine golf cart through Vermont. Send them a picture of the serial number look it on the steering shaft and the forms to register the golf cart with the bill sale

[@BrandonActionJackson]

I’m sorry but I don’t understand what you said

[@LauraHabner]

How do you get it weighed if you can’t drive it

[@BrandonActionJackson]

You have to trailer it to a certified scale

[@johnny1974ize]

All golf carts come with serial numbers serial number is the vin number

[@BrandonActionJackson]

It is not the vin number until a state determines it to be a vin number via an issued title

[@stevescubas]

Cool vid

[@BrandonActionJackson]
