Rome debates whether golf carts belong on its streets

Original: They embraced the Fiat 500, the Vespa, even tuk-tuks. But will Romans draw the line at the golf cart?

A proposal to allow golf carts on Rome's streets is drawing scrutiny in Italy. Romans have historically embraced small vehicles, from the Fiat 500 and the Vespa scooter to imported tuk-tuks, but the idea of golf carts as city transport is testing that tolerance. Commenters are weighing whether the vehicles fit Rome's chaotic traffic culture and narrow historic streets, or whether they cross a line for the Italian capital.

Why now: A proposal to introduce golf carts as vehicles on Rome's streets has sparked public debate about what belongs in the city's traffic.
