I'm going to go out on a limb here (I've already been spanked once here...) and say that it is my understanding that Low Speed Vehicles are allowed on the multimodal paths (opinion). I have one and I do use the multimodal paths and I've never been challenged (facts). I believe the paths are private property and, it is my understanding that, whereas law enforcement has jurisdiction on the public roads, they have none there (opinion but as related by law enforcement). Have you ever seen a speed limit sign on the paths? I haven't except for the Lake Sumter bridge crossing (fact) (10 MPH - have you ever seen anyone traveling at 10 MPH on that bridge in the cart lanes?) Who would enforce operation (and speeds) on the multimodal paths - The Villages Community Watch people (or whatever they're called)? I've never seen such an event (fact). But I might be wrong (fact)...
