Cartwheel Rentals offers street-legal, gas-powered golf carts classified as low speed vehicles (LSVs) under Florida law. These LSVs are authorized to operate on any road with a posted speed limit of 35 mph or less. All roads throughout Sanibel and Captiva Islands meet this requirement.

In Florida, street-legal golf carts must be equipped with seat belts, turn signals, mirrors, and additional safety features. All our carts include these required features and are properly titled and registered with the State of Florida. For additional details, please refer to the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles Guide to Owning Low Speed Vehicles at https://www.flhsmv.gov/pdf/mv/lowspeedvehicles.pdf.
