Golf carts may have “golf” in their name, but recent years have seen them adapted for use in any number of areas. They’re now used for mobility assistance, campus transportation, and more! We here at Golf Cars of Louisiana want you to get the most from your machine, so we’ve put together some of the ways you can use your golf cart away from the fairway, below.

Mobility Assistance

Golf carts are easy, comfortable, and pleasant to ride in or drive around, and it’s no wonder why—they’re built for exactly that! This makes them perfect for assisting people with mobility issues in exploring their neighborhood or hitting downtown with ease, thanks to:

  • Low ground clearance, making them easy to enter and exit.
  • Lots of legroom and padding, making them kind to aching joints and muscles.
  • Easy control, thanks to the consumer vehicle-style steering wheel and pedals.

Campus Transportation

You’ve no doubt seen golf carts on large residential, educational, or business campuses, though you may not have recognized them without golf clubs in the back. They come in handy in these places for a number of reasons and groups of people.

Maintenance Pack Mule

Any maintenance team traveling around a campus can make easy use of a golf cart’s storage capacity, allowing them to carry any and all necessary tools and supplies on the job. This is especially important when the supplies they need to move are too large or heavy to lug around by hand, but too small to justify wasting fuel in a larger vehicle. 

Golf carts can also get places consumer vehicles can’t, and it’s relatively easy to buy or modify one for off road travel, making it easier to traverse difficult paths and lawns.

Security Checks

Anyone working security for a large area benefits immensely from having a golf cart to cruise around in. These machines allow them to cover more ground without tiring them out on patrols, and if an emergency arises they can drive to it at 20 mph rather than hoof it.

Visitors and Other Employees

Finally, there are plenty of businesses and other campuses that are large and spread-out. When there’s an important visitor or an employee needs to get somewhere in a timely manner, a golf cart can help keep everyone comfortable and get them where they need to be.
