We use small electric vehicles on our site. There is no requirement for speedometers for a number of reasons
1) not used on public roads
2) If crossing a public road at any time they do not have enough power to break a speed limit
3) Not fitted by manufactures
A problem that does occur is when you have site specific speed limits, how do users know what speed they are doing, that said they are not breaking a highway law, but will be in breach of site regulations. If the concern is that users are breaking site laws then to enforce a restriction a speedometer should be fitted otherwise the breach will not hold up.
If your concern is site speed limits have a restrictor fitted under the accelerator peddle.
