I saw it here in South Venice. The carts are street legal. I asked the postman.

UPS was doing it in Deep Creek all last December. UPS truck would tow a trailer with a golf cart and open trailer to tow behind the golf cart, and unload in the subdivision.

This sure doesn't look street legal to me!

Yes, I couldn't believe they were delivering UPS packages in golf carts. I took this photo of them delivering to our house a couple of years ago. I thought it was a pretty neat idea. They have a storage unit they put on a vacant lot the next street over from us and they pick up their packages there every day. This only happens at Christmas time, not year round.

UPS has done the same type operation in BSI for the last couple of Christmas seasons.
