This leaves the 30 mph. residential streets. The longest run I know of that you could get "stuck" on would be Morse north of 466, Canal St., Pinellas Place and Hillsborough trail. You would be unlucky if you were travelling the whole length of those roads and the "slowpoke" ahead of you was doing the same---they eventually turn off, so your delay is what?--2 minutes max?
Meanwhile , we have drivers in their 80s and 90s who may be uncomfortable with higher speeds. I'd hate to see someone who survived the Great Depression, survived WWII, and survived 9-11 killed because they were pushed to drive at speeds above their ability.

Yeah....what he said. I don't feel comfortable going as fast as our cart can go and no one for any reason will push me into putting myself in jeopardy!
