As we enter and leave gates at the same percentage (50%) of the time , I wonder why we don't need to use gate cards to leave?
District staff says that "The purpose of the gates is to get vehicles to stop and watch for golf carts, bicycles and pedestrians."
OK, but why the need of a gate card when going in one direction and not the other?
I am just trying to understand the rationale for the use of gate cards when using public roads.

I was making a comment in jest -. kind of. If not using a gate card assess system for exiting a gate facility (a Village of houses) is safe then why not have the same system for entering (a Village of houses)? Having gates to slow traffic for users of the MM paths is understandable.
We have auto opening gates for 50% of the time when driving thru gate facilities (exiting) so why not 100% of the time?
