This obsession with speeding cars/carts by some is over blown. It was reported on NBC this morning that better that 50% of accidents are caused by distractions. Recall the concern of increasing accidents and fatalities for the proposal of raising the speed limits on interstates from 55 mph to 70 mph + and the fact that both have continued a downward trend. I m not dismissing the seriousness of speed but only attempting to place that factor in proper prospective

The applicable laws governing golf carts in The Villages are quickly becoming obsolete because The Villages is no longer just the quaint corner on the historic side. This place is getting larger and longer and its main drawing card is "golf cart accessible" an adjustment in the statute is in order. "Beam me up Scotty"
