Why You Should Talk to a Golf Cart Accident Lawyer at Florida Ticket Firm
Defendants in personal injury cases and their insurers typically take every avenue possible to reduce a payout for negligence, including hiring a strong legal team. With assistance from our attorneys at Florida Ticket Firm, you can confidently fight for every penny of compensation.
Furthermore, serious golf cart injuries require recovery time, which limits what you can do to investigate your case and gather evidence. Also, these civil cases have a time limit for submitting your claim. Fortunately, your lawyer can handle these details so you can focus on recuperating.
What To Know About Riding Golf Carts in Florida
The Florida Statutes Title XXIII Chapter 316 explains the rules for operating golf carts and similar vehicles. The state allows you to drive a golf cart on roads in residential neighborhoods, but you can only cross over main roads at designated areas between trailer parks and golf courses. Operators under 18 must have a driver’s license or learner’s permit, while adults only require valid state-recognized identification.
Carts that exceed 20 miles per hour but go less than 25 come under the classification of “low-speed vehicles,” which must have a title, registration, insurance, and specific safety features. Review the current regulations to ensure you follow the proper rules for your cart.
Possible Causes of Golf Cart Accidents
You can take all precautions while riding in a golf cart and still suffer an injury due to someone else’s carelessness. Causes for accidents include:
- A distracted driver
- A driver under the influence of drugs or alcohol
- Poorly marked signs
- A manufacturer’s defect or faulty repair job
- Poor road conditions
Multiple parties can have liability in golf cart accidents. Discuss the details with Florida Ticket Firm’s golf cart accident lawyers to determine who owes you damages.

Reminders About Filing an Insurance Claim for a Golf Cart Accident
When reporting a claim with an insurer, remember that these companies make profits by paying out the least they can. Stick to the facts and never admit any fault, which can lower your potential compensation.
Remain cautious during discussions, even with your own insurance company. An agent might use your responses against you later, so feel free to have your attorney communicate on your behalf. Our golf cart accident attorneys understand how to speak to insurers and protect your case.
Out-of-Court Settlements vs. Trial Judgment
You shouldn’t necessarily accept an insurer’s first offer, but that doesn’t mean you have to take your case to court. Trials involve extra expenses and more time, which can increase with appeals.
Your attorney will represent you before insurers to negotiate a fair out-of-court settlement. However, if the defendant or insurer refuses to pay what is appropriate, your lawyer will take your case to trial when it makes sense to do so.
The Types of Compensation You Can Recover After a Golf Cart Accident
After your accident, you can get compensation for economic and noneconomic damages. Economic losses include anything for which you have a specific expense directly from the accident. These include medical bills, lost income and property repair or replacement.
You can also receive damages for the emotional pain and suffering you experienced. A family who loses a loved one in a golf cart accident can file a wrongful death claim for such grief. These noneconomic damages are harder to calculate, but your lawyer helps you fight for them all.
