Local governments can pass ordinances allowing golf carts to be used on certain streets in their jurisdiction. Registration: Golf carts used on public streets must be registered with the North Carolina Division of Motor Vehicles (NCDMV) and have a valid license plate. A fee is required for registration. Driver's License: The operator must have a valid driver's license to operate a golf cart on public roads.

Insurance: Golf carts must have liability insurance if they are registered and operated on public streets. Age Requirement: Drivers must be at least 16 years old and have a valid driver's license.
