SHELBYVILLE, Ind. – The City of Shelbyville has started a new Golf Cart and Recreational Off-Highway Vehicle (ROV) registration program following a recently enacted ordinance aimed at improving public safety and providing clear operational guidelines for residents.
The ordinance, which applies to designated public roadways within Shelbyville city limits, outlines eligibility, safety requirements, registration procedures, and enforcement measures.
Residents must complete an online registration, pass a vehicle inspection through the Shelbyville Police Department, and meet equipment standards such as headlights, seat belts, turn signals, and mirrors. Operators must be 18 years or older and possess a valid driver’s license or state-issued ID. You can register here.
