Default Golf Cart Deaths

According to a report from an online media source, 13 Villagers have lost their lives while driving their golf carts in The Villages just in the last 7 years. Unbelievable. I had no idea the numbers were that high. My sincere condolences to all those who have lost loved ones.

Sgt Siemer of the Sumter County Sheriff's Office strongly suggested that Seat belts could have saved all 13 Villager's lives. Statistics suggest that seat belts, and their use, could become mandatory while traveling on streets and trails in The Villages. One only has to wonder when our insurance costs are going "sky high" because of all the serious golf cart accidents in TV.
