I totally agree with your point that an association cannot allow something that would otherwise be unlawful. In the case of my neighborhood, there is language restricting the use of these vehicles on neighborhood streets as well as parking on the street both of which are not contrary to local laws and ordnances.

I see what you are saying. We have no parking on streets but that is also against local law (but never enforced apparently)

But, an HOA cannot allow something that is illegal by Fed, State and Local law and typically cannot control any property that isn't theirs like streets.

So, if people are saying an HOA allowed golf carts (meaning wrote into by-laws in restrictions that they are ok) but it is illegal then I don't believe them.
