I have read the 34 previous posts and everything that has been said has been repeated several times over on these pages.

And each time I have mentioned that the cause of all this commotion is that The Villages error was in creating MMP's in the first place.

It does not take much forethought to recognize the danger being created by placing carts, bikes, pedestrian, etc on the same paths.

So the obvious outcome has been cited on the previous comments on 34 posts.

The motor vehicle laws establish attempt to balance the law for the protection of us all by creating certain rights and responsibilities. the problem of course is the human experience.

Recognizing this I travel with my eyes wide open. When I see pedestrians on either side of the path I slow because I do not want to startle them and I am aware that there are a majority of golf cart drivers that do not understand that the rules of the road require them to stop if an obstruction (people , parked car) is in their path. they simply attempt to veer around pedestrians to the middle of the path. Knowing this I slow or stop.

and I have written on these pages in the past that some walkers dress as if they are commandos

What I have learned is that the MMP were not well thought out and so my responsibility is to be well... very alert and careful of others.
