It has been brought to our attention that there has been an increase of unlicensed juveniles driving golf carts throughout the streets of the village. This evening I received two calls from motorists expressing their concerns when they seen a golf cart with known underage unlicensed children pull out in front of oncoming traffic and nearly get struck. The police department and village officials have expressed a zero tolerance stance for this type of reckless behavior. If the violators are stopped by the police they will be charged and given summons to court and the golf carts will be impounded. If the parents knowingly allowed the children to drive the golf cart they also will be charged and given summons to court.
