A golf vehicle includes a parking brake, a first controller, and a second controller. The parking brake is moveable between a braking position and a non-braking position. The parking brake is biased toward the braking position. The first controller is in communication with the parking brake. The second controller is in communication with the first controller and the parking brake. The first controller is configured to selectively control movement of the parking brake between the braking position and the non-braking position. The second controller is configured to, upon detecting that the first controller is malfunctioning, perform a braking operation using the parking brake.
