Florida ruling bans Charlie Woods from driving golf carts
The latest reports came this morning that the state of Florida has put a restriction on teenagers and children driving a golf cart around the region. The decision was taken in view of the emergence of golf carts as a convenient private transport vehicle, the effects of which have forced carts to have all the necessary amenities as a regular car.
But the usage of golf carts has been an attractive point for many youngsters accompanying their parents on a course. With the latest ruling, a fifteen-year-old must have a learner’s permit to drive a cart, and a year over should be equipped with a driver’s license.
Earlier, even 14-year-olds were allowed to ride golf carts without any permission. The news is especially depressing for the young and upcoming Charlie Woods, son of golf icon Tiger Woods.
