I do not want to ever see this aspect of our community in jeopardy just because of a parent or grandparent who doesn't know how to say no to a child. The children in my family know that they ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT be able to drive a golf cart here until they are 15, and won't be able to take it out without a adult with them until they have their legal driving privileges, end of story. These people that feel they are doing a child or grandchild a favor, or giving them a present by allowing this, are misguided, and I will continue to say something and protect my lifestyle here, wether they get mad or not.
Easy access to almost everything we need via Golfcart is one of the reasons we bought a home in TV. I also feel an obligation to speak up when I see laws being broken. If we were all more pro-active we might see some positive results.
