Whether that's legal depends on your state. In Arizona, for instance, modifying golf carts to be street legal is allowed. Here's an article on that: http://faircompanies.com/news/view/road-midgets-diy-nevs-and-solar-golf-carts/
Golf carts are usually driven on a golf course. As the golf course is classed as private land, if you are given permission to drive a golf cart by the owner or golf committee, then you don't need a special license. Obviously, if you insist on driving the golf cart on public road to go home, you do need a driving licence (which may be covered by your car driving licence, but not always). But insurance and third party cover maybe lacking. So, basically, drive a golf cart (with permission) and don't drive it off private land. The main thing is ask first - drive second!
You don't need a license, however, golf carts are considered miniature vehicles by Alberta transport (same as go carts and pocket bikes) They are not permitted to be driven on highways or public roads or side walks. They cannot be registered / licensed for road use.
No. Since golf carts do not meet regulations (or need to) to be driven on public roads, they are designed specifically for golf courses. Having said that, some golf clubs have their own rules governing the need to be a certain age or hold a current drivers license. It would pay to check with the club before using a cart on their course.
Golf Course
Yes You Can.
I live in Richmond Va. and my drivers lisence is suspended. I have a club car as my only transportation. Can I drive it on the road or sidewalks.
Probably but I don't think anyone will mind if it is just around the plantation.
No, usually not. You usually you do not need a driver's license to drive unless you drive on a state maintained road. This is a question you will need to ask your local law enforcement types as the rules change a bit from place to place. It also depends on where you want to drive it and if it is a golf course it depends on their rules...

You may do a double take when you catch sight of one of the new golf carts cruising around the many golf course communities in the United States. These are not the rental carts that you remember from the olden days, but decked out state-of-the-art carts with real pizzazz. From features added for comfort, to body designs meant to impress, innovations in golf carts have come a long way. Worried about getting caught out in the rain? Golf carts are now available with full zip up enclosures as well as a canopy to protect your clubs. For those who don’t want to go through the trouble of zipping up the sides, doors are also available for golf carts. Add a heater specially designed for golf carts, and you can enjoy cruising around in comfort, even in the winter. When money is no object, the design possibilities for both gas and electric golf carts are endless. Choose a golf cart styled to resemble the cars of yesteryear. Custom design your cart to look like a car or truck of the 1930’s, complete with either a hard top or convertible soft top. A hood ornament, pin striping, flames, and a wide selection of seat covers can make your cart distinctive. Current trends in golf carts include those designed to resemble a hummer, fire engine, jeep, Cadillac, off-road truck, and more. By the time you are finished selecting amenities such as a cooler in the trunk, custom dashboard, a back seat, and fancy wheels, your new luxury cart may cost as much as a car. Have fun pinping your cart and the response you receive from onlookers will make the investment worthwhile. Whether you are playing a round of golf, or just looking for a fun way to get around town, consider a golf cart for your second mode of transportation. Energy efficient and a blast to drive, many communities are making accommodations to incorporate golf carts.
