Street-legal golf carts and LSVs for Laguna Beach
Laguna Beach keeps golf carts and low-speed vehicles (LSVs) off sidewalks on Pacific Coast Highway and in the central business district, the Main Beach Boardwalk and city parks, and California law lets a registered LSV use roads with a speed limit of 35 mph or less. Watch Park Avenue: the city sets 40 mph between 1075 Park Avenue and Tahiti Avenue, so an LSV can't use that stretch. Every Backyard Escapism cart is built as a street-legal LSV with lights, turn signals, mirrors, a windshield, a seat belt for every seat and a VIN, in 4, 6 and 8 seat layouts with lithium batteries.

Laguna Beach golf cart questions
Can I drive a golf cart on Laguna Beach streets?
A golf cart can only be driven on a highway in a speed zone of 25 mph or less (CVC 21716), and the CHP says operating one on the highway outside a local designation under CVC 21115 is unlawful. We found no Laguna Beach ordinance designating a golf cart route. A registered low-speed vehicle (LSV) can use roads posted 35 mph or less.
Which Laguna Beach roads are off limits to an LSV?
Any road with a speed limit over 35 mph. City code sets 40 mph on Park Avenue between 1075 Park Avenue and Tahiti Avenue, and 45 mph on El Toro Road. The city's speed table does not list every street, so check the posted limit on your route, including Coast Highway.
Where can I park a cart in Laguna Beach?
The city publishes a Laguna Beach Golf Cart Parking Map on its public parking lots page. City code also lets the city manager set aside spaces for motorcycles and golf carts, and counts an LSV as a golf cart for those spaces only when it is operated under CVC 21115 or 21115.1. Check the signs at the space.
What is the difference between a golf cart and an LSV?
Under the California Vehicle Code a golf cart is built to go no more than 15 mph and carry no more than two people. A low-speed vehicle has four wheels, a gross vehicle weight rating under 3,000 pounds and a top speed of more than 20 but not more than 25 mph. The CHP says LSVs have 17-digit VINs and federal safety labels and must be registered. Our carts are built as street-legal LSVs.
