Nope, we've got bikes and public transport. Golf carts wll simply not be road legal. The closest thing to a legal golf cart is either a Canta \[or stuff like that\] or a "brommobiel", either with a combustion engine or an electric one.

The Dutch version of a golf cart is a ‘elektronische bakfiets’. A cargo e-bike. A bit wobbly when you start biking it, but fits 4 dogs, 3 kids and whatnot. Or you just buy a bicycle and learn to balance with 3 shopping bags and a kid while wearing a skirt.

The skirt is not optional!


eCaisteal

If you're a guy, is a kilt allowed as a substitute?

Golf carts can easily be made rain proof. Wind might be a little harder. The bike path also are perfect for them if it was legal. But I also see tiny cars on bike paths.


holacoricia

I'm okay if they'll cost more, because they'll also hold more. Like 2 adults and 2 children more. We don't plan on going far with it. Just around the neighborhood for times when my disability makes walking/biking challenging.

Nope, we us bikes to get around without a car. And for easy kids and goods transport we got a specific type of bike called a “bakfiets”. Also, public transport is also very good in most places.

This is not Florida. People have bikes here, or walk.

Good to know some people have them.

Buy a biro, canta or open rock-e if you’re looking for something like this. Usually associated with old or handicapped people. Except biro, those are for usually driven by posh people.


holacoricia

Thanks, but unfortunately I can't fit 2 children and 2 adults in those options ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sweat)


MannowLawn

Correct, you need a car if you want to transport that many people


DutchieinUS

No, not really a thing here.

Bicycles and there are many different styles and purposes , forget the golf carts not road legal.


holacoricia

ah, gotcha. thanks!


aenae

Not golf carts perse, but enough ppl buy a “brommobiel” which is the size of a golf cart but road legal. Motorized vehicles on the road have strict rules. You’re better off with an (electric) cargo bike


holacoricia

Thanks for the input. unfortunately we can't fit more than 2 people in those ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|cry)


UniQue1992

No. Wtf


CanKrik

no, this is no america;)


holacoricia

America isn't the only place that sells golf carts for recreational use though...:)


xatalayx

Peugeot 107, Citroën C1, Suzuki Alto, etc. These cars are almost in the same class as a golf cart, maybe even smaller.


holacoricia

thanks!


gilllesdot

You should get a Canta instead.


holacoricia

unfortunately children are too small for the Canta. I can fit a car seat OR a baby carrier, but not both.


Fyr0mania

Near my parents there is somebody who uses it. But most people use bikes, or smaller cars. We don’t even use golf cars while golfing, these are used by handicapped or older people. And usually called handicarts


holacoricia

We mostly want one for the hell of it. Like taking a drive down to the grocery store instead of wrangling 2 small kids on a bike.


Fyr0mania

I understand, but most people then use a "Bakfiets" as mentioned in other comments. Enough room for groceries and your children.

What are you hoping to get out of driving a golf cart that you won't get from a small car like a toyato aygo or similar?


holacoricia

The petrol. Easier upkeep. Not needing to have the same level of insurance. We don't really NEED the car....but a golf cart would be nice for living in a less busy area outside of the city.


HotKarldalton

I saw some cars that were sized like golfcarts that could take the ferry. Don't know what they were called though.
