Where you can drive a golf cart in Boca Raton

Boca Raton allows golf cart use inside specific gated and semi-private communities under city ordinance. Public street use is restricted to areas the city has formally designated — this is narrower than many Florida cities, so check with your HOA and the city before assuming a route is legal. Individual HOAs often have their own speed limits, path rules, and registration requirements layered on top of the city ordinance.

Under Florida law, a standard golf cart may only operate on streets locally designated for cart use, generally those posted at 30 mph or under, and only between sunrise and sunset. A titled and insured low-speed vehicle can use any road posted 35 mph or less at any hour. Since October 2023, drivers under 18 must hold at least a learner's permit to operate a golf cart on public roads; drivers 18 and older must carry a valid ID. If you plan to drive on public streets regularly, an LSV conversion or a purpose-built LSV is worth considering.
