Default Access to cross 7 mile road

I think there may be a way to accomplish the crossing. On 441 in front of Walmart golf carts cross at the traffic light, I’ve heard that Marion County Sheriff allows them to cross.My mother lives in Sun City Center,Fl and golf carts cross the State Hwy at intersections that have traffic lights.
I think that the sign “No Carts beyond Here” was put up by the Villages and not by the St Of Florida nor Sumter County.Your course of action should be meeting with the Sumter Co Sheriff and your County Commissioner’s and maybe permission will be granted.
I’m not a attorney but I think if enough people want this access and just a little common since is applied it’s something that’s doable. It certainly makes since and would life for the residents much more enjoyable.
Good luck
