It appears many people are just in a hurry.....
Hi, regarding speeding. On the MM paths, on a bike or a cart it is so obvious that many carts are exceeding 25 or so MPH. Our cart is set at 19. Fast enough to do anything in the Villages. W get overtaken and passed frequently. OK, 20 mph is 30 feet per second. Any wonder why there are so many near misses and actual events? Have you noticed how the paper does not adequately publish this item? During happy hours, it may be best to stay home. Speed kills folks, take it easy. bbbbbb
