St. Charles golf cart questions
Can I drive an LSV on St. Charles streets?
Yes. The city code allows low-speed vehicles on streets posted 35 mph or less, and they may cross a faster street at an intersection or permitted crossing point. The driver needs a valid license and insurance.
Is my cart a golf cart or an LSV in St. Charles?
The city treats them separately. A golf cart is built for golf course use and can't go faster than 20 mph. An LSV is a four-wheel vehicle with a top speed of 20 to 25 mph that meets the federal low-speed vehicle standard (49 CFR 571.500). Our carts are built as LSVs.
What equipment does St. Charles require on an LSV?
Headlamps, front and rear turn signals, stop lamps, red reflectors, a driver's side mirror plus a passenger or interior mirror, a parking brake, a windshield that meets federal glazing standards, a VIN and a seat belt for each seat.
Do I need to title and register an LSV?
The city code puts it on the owner to meet Missouri titling and registration requirements. Your rep can walk you through the paperwork that comes with your cart.
Is there a golf cart dealer in St. Charles?
We don't sell through dealers. You design your cart online, we build it and deliver it to St. Charles, and mobile techs come to you for service. Your rep confirms the delivery window when you order.
