Pennsylvania recognizes low-speed vehicles as Neighborhood Electric Vehicles (NEVs): four-wheeled electric vehicles with a maximum design speed of 20 to 25 mph that comply with 49 CFR 571.500, which PennDOT titles and registers as passenger vehicles and requires to carry financial responsibility (insurance). A registered NEV may not be operated on roads with posted speed limits above 25 mph, and because it is registered as a motor vehicle its operator must hold a valid driver's license; standard golf carts that do not meet these federal standards cannot be titled or registered for road use. PennDOT's fact sheet does not state a specific NEV minimum driver age, so verify licensing age and all current requirements with PennDOT / the Pennsylvania DMV before operating on public roads.

This is a plain-language summary, not legal advice — golf-cart and LSV rules change and vary by city and county. Confirm the current requirements with the Pennsylvania DMV before you buy or drive. What makes a golf cart street legal.
