From the Villages official documentation: Multi-Modal Path Information and Safety

"Who is allowed to use the multi-modal paths throughout The Villages?” This is a question that the District receives on a regular basis. The multi-modal paths are for use by NON-AUTOMOTIVE traffic such as bicycles, golf carts, pedestrians, and skaters. It is not legal…nor is it smart…to drive vehicles such as smart cars, motorcycles, or mopeds on any of the multi-modal paths in The Villages. For additional information, please click on the header of this announcement to read a memo from District Counsel regarding the use of multi-modal paths.

And here's the memo referred to above:

And finally - the law about ATVs in Florida:

Online Sunshine.

ATVs are not permitted on paved roads at all. Multi-modal paths are paved. Walking trails designated AS walking trails are for pedestrians only, no motors of any kind, including golf carts.
