Goose 1 Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 Ok. First time to fort. Bringing cart. Looked at maps and was wondering, are golf carts only for driving in the fort? Could I drive cart to Polynesian? Downtown Disney? Forgive me of these are dumb questions. Places look kinda far. Are those main roads connecting the different areas or are the on property Disney roads I can cruse on a golf cart? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Travisma 1,317 Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 Golf carts are only for the Fort. The connecting roads are regular roads that cars, truck, busses use.There is a path over to Wilderness Lodge, but I'm pretty sure carts are not allowed on that either.

twiceblessed....nacole 433 Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 Nope, they're not. Nope... but if you act dumb, they don't yell... too much Actually, the one time my dad and Tom did drive over there (back in 2012), it really was an accident. They truly thought it was okay :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They truly thought it was okay :)I rode my bike over to Downtown Disney from the Fort one time. Used Disney Vacation Club Way past Saratoga Springs to get there, and came back Buena Vista Drive. Traffic wasn't that bad back then. I've roller bladed from the Dolphin/Swan around the back road past the Yacht/Beach Club over to the Grand Floridian. That drop in the road where it goes underneath the water bridge to Epcot was a little hairy. Also skated along the boardwalk and the sidewalk in front of the Yacht/Beach Club side. I don't think they allow skating on the boardwalk or the sidewalk around the lake any more. BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tried it once (oh...almost 20 years ago now, mercy) and it was. not. good. I'm sure I've gave several people, some really good laughs though Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Memphis 105 Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 What about electric vehicles? Are they allowed on Disney roads?As long as they are street legal and registered with tags they can be driven on the roads but they are not allowed to be taken on the golf cart paths. On the road only. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grumpy and Grandma 739 Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 What about electric vehicles? Are they allowed on Disney roads?Not on the roads outside of the FORT. Those roads have 40 MPH speed limits and electric vehicles can only be operated on roads with speed limit of 35 or less, per FL law. Also the community must allow their use as well.

Memphis 105 Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 OK I stand corrected but I have seen them around Disney often. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Retired and Happy (Ken) 101 Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 Depends on your definition of Electric Vehicle. A golf cart and a Volt are two different animals. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 For electric powered cars, such as a Volt or Leaf, they even have special parking spots in some of the Theme Park lots for chargining. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If he questions you just tell him it's custom built! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
