cf discussion on http://www.imcdb.org/movie.php?id=110366
Shall we include these "made for movies" vehicles that are closer to go-carts than the categories of vehicles that we already have?
Main problems are, IMHO:
- no real interest of having such vehicles listed on their own page, as there is no make & model to indicate
- cannot be used as vehicles on open roads, unlike some "borderline" categories that we have on the site. In some countries some forklifts, farm vehicles, construction equipment, etc. can be registered as road vehicles.

Are the go-carts in this film motorized?

It seems so (else this would not be a question: non-motorized vehicles are not listed at all).

I don't know to be honest. If we don't allow these than why should we allow golf carts and electric warehouse vehicles?

G-MANN >> Many warehouse vehicles can be registered for road use, and have a make & model (and are even often made by same makers as other vehicles, like Toyota for example).
Golf carts (and NEVs) are closer to a microcar than a go-cart.
Ralph >> last one is a quad, these are currently listed. And they can usually be registered for road-use like motorbikes (well, at least in Belgium...)

What about golf carts, you can't drive them on public roads, can you?

It can really be registered and used on roads? Well, then it changes much...
Though that there is still the problem of unidentifiable make for most of the carts.

I do not know for USA...

It must be funny to drive that in the city, but it must also be quite dangerous...

I think we should keep the go carts since we have a lot of other vehicles on the site that don't require a license to drive it. But still, it'd be quite difficult trying to indentify them. (unless we have a go-cart expert on the site )

Only in rare cases can the maker of a go cart be identified and the model name will be even harder if it even exists. Is there really any point in listing a bunch of unidentifiable go carts?
