Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards

This final rule responds to a growing public interest in using golf cars 1 and other similar-sized, 4-wheeled vehicles to make short trips for shopping, social and recreational purposes primarily within retirement or other planned communities with golf courses. These passenger-carrying vehicles, although low-speed, offer a variety of advantages, including comparatively low-cost and energy- efficient mobility. Further, many of these vehicles are electric- powered. The use of these vehicles, instead of larger, gasoline-powered vehicles like passenger cars, provides quieter transportation that does not pollute the air of the communities in which they are operated. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
