Since the speed limit on a beach is 15mph, and a golf cart in some areas is considered a "community vehicle" meaning in certain communities with golf courses they can be used on the road to go from home to course. I don't think they are "legal" on a beach, but that could depend on the city of which the beach lies. And no, putting a orange slow moving vehicle placard on the back of a SxS and trying to pass it as a farm implement, which can be driven on roads and highways, will not sufice (although it was a good try)

Used the triangle for years with no issue...unless you find a cop with a chip on his shoulder you'll be fine.

ROVs may not be driven on public roads unless the:

■vehicle is owned by a state, county or municipality and operated on a public beach or highway to maintain public safety and welfare,
■driver is a farmer or a rancher traveling no more than 25 miles,
■driver is a public utility worker, or
■driver is a law enforcement officer.

That's from the DPS. As long as I am 25 miles from the ranch it is Bueno.

The wild cat is awesome I love it.. as far as the beach thing.. you can purchase a permit to drive on bolever beach in galveston.. it is a yearly permit and it cost $5 they do not care if it is street legal as long as the state gets its $5.
