Ind. Law - "Southern Illinois town saves gas money with golf carts"
All of a sudden, it looks like many are jumping on the golf cart band wagon.
Today the Louisville Courier Journal carries an AP report that begins:
SESSER, Ill. — One southern Illinois city has an idea to combat high fuel prices: golf carts.The city of Sesser has passed an ordinance that lets golf carts and similar vehicles with steering wheels on city streets. Sesser alderman Bob Woll came up with the idea, saying he can drive his electric golf cart for 25 miles on a 10-hour charge that costs $1.30.
Sesser golf cart drivers can’t ride on sidewalks or state roads and they can’t go faster than 25 mph.
