If it's raining, slow down - if you can't see good, get more lights installed on your cart. It's not rocket science, it's common sense. Or, did some Villager's leave that up north?

I attended the meeting solely for trying to understand how the villages system works and listen to people on the subject of golf cart safety. I was extremely disappointed when reading comments in the V=[l@#$% N%@&. I found that most people didn't or wouldn't understand what the engineer was trying to express about striping the cart paths. As far as I'm concerned you can stripe and paint whatever on the paths till the cows come home but you can't fix stupid. It may come down at some point to have an agreement between villages authorities and local law enforcement to enforce speeding and wreckless operation. The only reason people have souped up carts is because they know they can get away with it. I personally don't care when I get passed but when it happens on a blind curve and the idiot thinks I should be the one to slam on my brakes to save his butt. Be careful out there.
